2010 Map of Russellville Gulch

About this map

Russellville and Cimarron anchor this portrait of the Colorado landscape as it transitioned into the early twenty-first century. The map reveals a complex drainage network where Cherry Creek meets its tributaries, West Cherry Creek and East Cherry Creek, carving through the varied terrain of Wildcat Canyon and Russellville Gulch. The intersection of historical extraction and modern utility is evident in the presence of the R E Coulter Mine and the Jenny Lode, standing alongside water management infrastructure like the Franktown Parker FPR-1 Dam. Transportation patterns here are particularly evocative of the American West, featuring a mix of local routes such as Anderson Rd and trails with historical resonances like the Chisholm Trl. Small-scale aviation is represented by the Kostroski Airport, while family-named landmarks like Reed and the Barney Bird Reservoir Number 1 provide valuable data for local genealogists.
