2011 Map of Walton Peak

About this map

Walton Peak serves as the focal point of this high-country landscape in Routt County, situated where the northern extent of the Gore Range meets a complex network of alpine drainages. The area is defined by its water system, with Harrison Creek and Green Creek flowing westward while Sarvis Creek meanders through the southern reaches. This 2011 survey captures the infrastructure of the Routt National Forest, including the Meadows Campground near the northern boundary. Access into the back country is recorded through routes like the Buffalo Park Trl, providing a clear view of the wilderness travel patterns and drainage basins before they leave the quadrangle. The map is particularly useful for understanding the hydrography of the region, tracing the headwaters of Muddy Creek as it winds along the eastern edge near Co-Hwy 19.
