2013 Map of Westcreek

About this map

The mountain settlement of Westcreek and the expansive Pike National Forest define this 2013 survey of the Douglas County backcountry. The landscape is marked by a network of ranching and recreational sites, including Grandview Resort, Pollock Ranch, and Shady Brook Camp, illustrating the region's transition from early homesteading to a modern mix of private holdings and public land. Significant geological landmarks like Thunder Butte and Sheep Nose dominate the horizon, while drainage patterns from Horse Cr and West Cr dictate the placement of roads like State Hwy 67. Researchers can trace the intersections of historic land divisions like t010s r070w across the Jefferson and Teller county lines. Small-scale water management is evidenced by the J-O Hill Reservoir, situated near residential clusters along Westcreek Rd and Trout Creek Ranch Rd.
