1980 Map of Arkansas Mountain

About this map

The Arkansas River corridor serves as the primary artery for transport and activity in this high-altitude landscape. Along its banks, the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks follow the river's path, passing the small settlement of Cotopaxi and the Pasture Roadside Park. This 1980s-era documentation shows an economy shaped by mineral extraction and recreation, with a Mine Quarry located in the southern hills and various Gravel Pits near the river canyon. The surrounding terrain is defined by prominent peaks like Park Mountain, Garell Peak, and Arkansas Mountain. An intricate network of drainages, such as Red Gulch, Indian Spring Gulch, and Falls Gulch, dissects the uplands, highlighting the complex water table that sustains features like Bernard Spring and Mud Spring in an otherwise arid environment.
