About this map

Waugh Mtn and Loco Mtn dominate the high-elevation landscape of Fremont County, where a complex network of gulches and drainage basins defines the terrain. The map details a transition from the prominent peaks of Stoney Face Mtn and Burris Mtn to the deeply carved incisions of Waugh Gulch, Long Gulch, and Green Mountain Gulch. These natural corridors have long influenced local transit, evidenced by the modern placement of Waugh Mtn Rd and Co Rd 12.

Water sources such as N Tallahassee Cr and Rock Cr flow through the valleys, supporting the sparse settlement patterns and ranching infrastructure indicated by several named roads like Nesterville Rd and Elkhorn Rd. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the elevation drops toward North Burro Mtn and Red Hill, where Red Gulch and Spring Gulch converge, illustrating the rugged hydrological system of the central Colorado interior.
