Colorado Front Range flow presence maps

This dataset includes geospatial data for three Colorado Front Range catchments: Mill Creek, Skin Gulch, and Gordon Gulch. In each catchment the extent of surface flow in the channel network was mapped twice in the field during summer 2016. These field maps of flow presence are included as polyline shapefiles in the dataset. Additional supporting data for each catchment are included for further analysis. These supporting data are watershed boundaries, flowlines from the National Hydrography Dataset High Resolution, digitized geologic maps, and 1 m resolution digital elevation models.
