2021 Map of Turpin Reservoir

About this map

The Medicine Bow Mountains define the high-country character of this 2021 survey, where the drainages of the Snowy Range feed into several significant water bodies and high-elevation meadows. Central to the topography is the Turpin Park Reservoir, a focal point for the surrounding network of forest roads and trails that navigate the steep slopes. The landscape is punctuated by distinct parks—naturally occurring alpine openings—such as Fish Creek Park, Cecil Park, and Mullison Park, which served as historical landmarks for early travelers and land managers in the Carbon County high country.
