2013 Map of Vail East

About this map

Vail and the neighboring settlement of Bighorn sit at the southern edge of this 2013 survey, where development meets the expansive White River National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the Gore Range, with peaks like Bald Mountain and The Spider rising above a complex network of alpine drainage systems. High-altitude lakes, including Upper State Lake, Pitkin Lake, and Booth Lake, are connected by an extensive system of established wilderness routes such as the Booth Lake Trail 2011.1 and Pitkin Trail 2012.1. This map captures the valley's modern layout along Gore Creek, including residential corridors like Vail Valley Dr and local landmarks such as Vail Memorial Park, reflecting the area's established role as a hub for mountain recreation and alpine living.
