About this map

California Park and the high elevations of the Routt National Forest dominate this landscape in north-central Colorado. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridgelines, including Sand Mtn, Saddle Mtn, and the distinctive Devils Slide. The southern portion of the quadrangle shows a transition toward lower drainages, where the Deep Creek Cem sits near the banks of Deep Creek. This area preserves a legacy of early mountain travel and isolated mountain burials, with a network of local routes like Smith Park Rd and Aspen Meadows Ln providing access to the rugged interior. Geologic features such as Anthracite Ridge and Rim Rocks mark the high country, while numerous watercourses including Armstrong Cr and Smith Creek carve through the deep gulches of the national forest.
