2020 Map of Wickes
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
The settlement of Wickes sits at the junction of several drainage gulches, including Spring Gulch and Finn Gulch, illustrating the historic concentration of mining and transport in this Jefferson County mountain corridor. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes around Alta Mtn, where names like Iron Ore Gulch and Copper Gulch reflect a legacy of mineral extraction. Modern transportation routes follow the natural topography, with Old Railroad Rd and Wickes Tunnel marking the path of former industrial transit. To the south, the terrain opens into Boulder Valley, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the protected lands of the Deerlodge National Forest. Significant watercourses such as Prickly Pear Cr and Muskrat Cr drain these highlands, creating a complex network of valleys that have dictated human settlement at Amazon and Portal.
