This cover shows the outlines of debris-flow source areas, travel zones, and deposits. Jonathan Godt and Jeffrey Coe mapped the debris flows from 1:12,000 scale color aerial photography using a Kern PG-2 photogrammetric plotter. The photographs were scaled and oriented to the topographic base map using prominent topographic landmarks and plotted on a transparent polyester overlay registered to the topographic base maps at 1:12,000 scale. The mapped landslides were digitized manually in ArcInfo. The final scale of the data are 1:24,000. Purpose: The purpose of these data is provide an inventory the debris flows that were triggered over a 2-square kilometer area in the central Front Range of Colorado by a July 28, 1999 thunderstorm. These data do not consitute a debris-flow hazard map of the area.

At 1:24,000 scale, debris-flow features less than about 5 m wide (~ 0.2 mm at 1:24,000) are not visible.
