About this map

Greenhorn Mountain and the high-elevation terrain of the San Isabel National Forest dominate this mid-1990s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by sharp drainage divides and recreational outposts. The settlement of San Isabel serves as a focal point near Lake Isabel, surrounded by the Saint Charles River and Willow Creek headwaters. The map captures a transition from managed forest lands to the more primitive Greenhorn Mountain Wilderness to the south.

Local history researchers will find several specialized camps such as Lazy Acres Camp and Camp Jackson along the eastern drainages of Muddy Creek and Middle Muddy Creek. Evidence of earlier land use and extraction is visible through labels for a Gravel Pit and a Prospect near Gleason Canyon. The map is also a detailed record of the trail network used for access, including the Amethyst, Cisneros, and Bartlett routes.
