2019 Map of Timber Mountain

About this map

Timber Mountain and the high ridges of the Front Range dominate this landscape along the border of El Paso and Pueblo Counties. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic drainages and peaks, including Buck Hill and Booth Mountain, which overlook deep-cut features such as Crooked Canyon and Rule Canyon. These topographical patterns reflect the natural erosive force of seasonal waterways like Turkey Creek and Wild Horse Creek, which have carved out the varied elevations of the Orchard Canyon and Sullivan Canyon systems. Centered on Lytle Road, the map provides a look at this undeveloped corridor as it appeared in the late 2010s. The surveyor's placement of the county line and township markers emphasizes the enduring legal boundaries that overlay this complex system of hollows and creek beds, such as Young Hollow and Sand Creek.
