Uncompahgre National Forest Mountain Divison (USDA)
The Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests are a combination of separate National Forests located on the western slope of the Colorado Rockies. These three combined Forests cover 3,161,912 acres of public land in the central and southern Rocky Mountains, an area that lies south of the Colorado River and west of the Continental Divide with some of the most spectacular scenery in the Rockies. The Forests vary in elevation from 5,800 feet above sea level in Roubideau Creek Canyon to 14,309 feet on Uncompahgre Peak. The Forests include spectacular features like the 355 foot high Bridal Veil falls; the Grand Mesa with over 300 lakes, one of the world's largest flat top mountains; and Alpine Tunnel, once the highest railroad tunnel in North America.
The map also features descriptions and images of special and distinctive features, recreation opportunities, trails, scenic areas, alpine wilderness areas, archaeological and historical heritage protection, backcountry 4-wheeling, Leave No Trace skills and ethics, hunting, bear safety, and travel management rules, regulations, definitions, and signs.
Also included are a complete legend, index to USGS 7.5’ topographic maps, recreation site index, and contact information for National Forest offices, Bureau of Land Management offices, and Colorado State Park offices.
