1980 Map of Arkansas Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Arkansas River water and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad corridor define the southern boundary of this high-elevation terrain in Fremont County. The settlement of Cotopaxi serves as a central hub, situated where the tracks parallel the river near a local Athletic Field and Roadside Park. The landscape is dominated by complex drainage systems, including Red Gulch, Gross Creek, and Sand Gulch, which cut through a series of significant peaks like Arkansas Mountain and Garell Peak. Economic activity is evidenced by scattered Mine, Prospect, and Quarry labels, reflecting the region's mineral extraction history. Higher elevations are marked by landmarks such as Park Mountain and North Burno Mountain, while numerous named gulches like Dirty Gulch and Cedar Springs Gulch suggest a history of seasonal water management and local navigation in this part of the Colorado interior.
