2011 Map of Willow Lakes

About this map

Red Peak and Keller Mountain dominate the high-elevation terrain of this 2011 survey, where the drainages of Gore Creek and the Blue River form a complex alpine network. The landscape is defined by its glacial cirques and numerous high-country water bodies, including the namesake Willow Lakes, Gore Lake, and Snow Lake. To the north, Boulder Creek flows east from Boulder Lake toward the Boulder Creek Campground, while the southern reaches are marked by the steep descents of Deluge Creek and South Willow Creek. A singular industrial marker, the Boss Mine, sits on the slopes above North Rock Creek, providing a specific point of interest for those studying the area's prospecting history. The map also details forest access routes such as Boulder Creek Rd and several county roads like Co Rd 1350 that skirt the edge of these peaks.
