2013 Map of Sulphur Mountain

About this map

Pike-San Isabel Village sits at the heart of this landscape, surrounded by the high-elevation terrain of Sulphur Mountain and the expansive Pike National Forest. The map documents a complex network of ranching and irrigation history, clearly visible through features like the Harrington Ranch, Buckley Ranch, and a series of engineered waterways including the Harrington-Rikard Ditch, Central Ditch, and Western Ditch. These channels redirect water across the valley floor toward the South Platte River and the northern reaches of the Spinney Mountain Reservoir. The rugged topography is etched with numerous named drainages such as Schoolmarm Draw, Sawdust Gulch, and Muley Gulch. Residential development is shown through a dense grid of streets with thematic names like Cherokee Trl and Apache Trl, contrasting with the open ranch lands to the south.
