2013 Map of Saint Elmo

About this map

Saint Elmo sits at the heart of this high-elevation terrain within the San Isabel National Forest, where the canyon of Chalk Creek serves as the primary corridor through the Sawatch Range. The map details a landscape defined by dramatic relief, stretching from the Collegiate Peaks in the northeast to the massive heights of Tabeguache Peak and Carbonate Mountain in the southeast. This 2013 survey illustrates the complex network of mountain drainage and glacial cirques that feed the area's high-altitude water bodies, including Alpine Lake, Grizzly Lake, and Upper Pomeroy Lake.
