2022 Map of Shield Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Shield Mtn and Deadhorse Ridge define the high-country terrain of northern Colorado within the Routt National Forest. This landscape is characterized by the complex drainage network of the Little Snake River, where the Middle Fork and South Fork converge amidst high peaks like Three Forks Mtn and Piney Mtn. The map reveals a land utilized for both its natural resources and its remote backcountry access, featuring an extensive system of trails such as the Burton Creek Trl, Oliver Creek Trl, and the Nipple Peak Trl. A rare point of cultural history in this wilderness is the Three Forks Cem, located near the river forks along Co Rte 129, marking early high-altitude settlement or ranching presence in the region.
