About this map

Uncompahgre Plateau terrain dominates this 2013 survey of the Uncompahgre National Forest, where a complex network of seasonal creeks and steep-walled canyons defines the land use. The map highlights the high-elevation ranching and recreational heritage of the region, featuring Gray Cow Camp and Lazy Y Cow Camp alongside the Antone Spring Campground.

A web of historic trails and service roads, such as the Old Roubideau Trail and the Hornet Trail, crisscross the area between Reade Hill and the deep incisions of Red Canyon and Little Red Canyon. The presence of Old Highway 90 provides a clear link to earlier transportation routes through this part of Montrose County, showing how infrastructure adapted to the formidable landscape near Darling Lake and the various springs like Spruce Spring.
