1969 Map of Bieser Creek

About this map

Little Dolores River winds through the northern reaches of this Mesa County landscape, marking a terrain defined by deep drainages and intermittent water sources. The 1968 photogrammetric survey captures a rural environment where infrastructure is limited to a network of jeep trails and unimproved roads, such as the winding Canyon Trail. Educational history is anchored by the Coates Creek Sch located near the western edge of the quadrangle. The map details a landscape where vital water access points like Toms Canyon Spring, McGinley Spring, and various unnamed springs were essential for land use. Significant topographic features include the prominent Kings Canyon and the branching Middle Briar Canyon, while industrial activity is represented by a small Gravel Pit near the river.
