About this map

Baldy Mountain stands as the centerpiece of this high-altitude landscape in the Sangre De Cristo Range, where the industrial history of the late 20th century meets the legacy of the Old West. The presence of the Aztec Mine and Aztec Ridge points to the region's mineral prospecting heritage, while the establishment of Philmont Scout Ranch and the Elliot Barker State Wildlife Area marks a shift toward conservation and recreation. This 1987 survey details several backcountry outposts, including French Henry Camp and Copper Park Camp, which are scattered throughout the Beaubien and Miranda (Maxwell) Grant. The transition from the Carson National Forest to state-managed wildlife lands is clearly delineated, alongside drainage systems like South Ponil Creek and the high-elevation waters of Beatty Lakes.
