2013 Map of Sugarloaf Mountain

About this map

White River National Forest lands dominate this high-elevation landscape, where the boundary between Garfield and Eagle counties bisects a network of alpine drainage systems. The terrain transitions from the elevated plateaus of The Flat Tops and Derby Mesa in the north toward the deep incision of the Colorado River corridor in the southeast. Historical access routes such as the Ute Sweetwater Trail 2032.1 and W Mountain Trail 1817.1 underscore a long history of transhumance and timber management in the region.
