About this map

Westcreek sits at the heart of this high-country landscape, serving as a primary point of reference within the vast Pike National Forest. The topography is defined by a dense network of drainages and named peaks, including the prominent Thunder Butte, Bell Rock, and Sheep Nose. Water sources are vital to the area's layout, with Horse Cr and Fourmile Cr carving through the terrain, while the J O Hill Reservoir provides a managed water feature near the settlement center.

Relief and access are illustrated through numerous gulches and hollows, such as Schoonover Gulch and Shrewsbury Gulch. For those tracing the movement across this area, the Turtle Mountain Trail offers a glimpse into the recreational or utilitarian pathways that traverse the ridges. The map captures the meeting of administrative boundaries, showing the convergence of Jefferson, Douglas, and Teller counties within this national forest environment.
