About this map

The North Fork South Platte River carves a central corridor through this mountain landscape, dictating the placement of settlements and transport routes. Along the river valley, the small community of Shawnee serves as a focal point, flanked by educational landmarks such as Platte Canyon High School and Jesse B Fitzsimmons Middle School. This 1980s survey reflects the established mountain corridor along U.S. 285, where smaller hamlets like Glenisle, Singleton, and Weller sit tucked against the canyon walls. Much of the surrounding territory is protected land, bracketed by the Mount Evans Wilderness to the north and the Lost Creek Wilderness to the south. The terrain is marked by numerous drainage gulches, including Slaughterhouse Gulch and Ben Tyler Gulch, while high points like Derringer Peak and Shawnee Peak rise above the Pike National Forest.
