1969 Map of Bakers Peak

About this map

Bakers Peak stands as the dominant topographical feature in this high-elevation corner of Moffat County, Colorado, during the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by a network of drainage systems feeding into the Little Snake River at the northern edge of the sheet, including Slater Creek and Pilli Creek. This survey reveals a terrain shaped by water management and communications, evidenced by the presence of the OVO Reservoir and several named springs such as Box Spring. The remote nature of the region is underscored by the reliance on Jeep Trails for access through the timbered slopes of Serviceberry Mountain and along the prominent Smith Rim. Notable infrastructure includes a Radio Facility and a Gaging Station on the river, indicating the area's importance for regional resource monitoring and telecommunications.
