1969 Map of Bakers Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Bakers Peak and Serviceberry Mountain dominate this corner of Northwest Colorado, where the high-altitude landscape is defined by its complex drainage network and early communication infrastructure. The Little Snake River flows along the northern edge, supported by numerous named tributaries like Jack Rabbit Creek and Slater Creek. The presence of a Radio Facility and a Gaging Sta near the river indicates the mid-century importance of monitoring both the airwaves and water levels in this cattle and sheep-raising country. A network of primitive transport is visible through the Jeep Trail systems that traverse the Smith Rim and connect isolated water sources such as Box Spring and the OVO Reservoir. These features suggest a working ranching landscape, where every spring and draw was named for navigation across the high plateaus.
