About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest and Routt National Forest meet at the high-altitude divide between Wyoming and Colorado on this modern survey. The terrain is defined by a dense network of high-country drainages, including Bear Cr, Trent Cr, and the numerous forks of Big Cr, which flow through open mountain meadows such as Cunningham Park and Jerry Park.

Water management systems are prominent features of this landscape, notably the Continental Ditch and Casteel Ditch, which trace the complex topography to redirect flow across the continental divide. In the northern reaches, landmarks like Coyote Hill and Bear Mtn overlook a network of forest access routes including Sky Line Rd and Copper Mine Rd, hinting at the historical extraction and recreation that has shaped this border region.
