1969 Map of Bighole Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Little Snake River winds across the northern reaches of this Colorado landscape, carving a distinctive path through the high desert of Moffat County. At the center of the terrain is Bighole Butte, a prominent landmark that defines the local topography. This late-1960s survey illustrates a region shaped by natural drainage patterns, with several significant draws such as Bighole Gulch, Scandinavian Gulch, and Dry Gulch cutting through the elevated plateau. A solitary Drill Hole and a remote Spring indicate the sparse human activity and resource exploration present during this era. The map provides a precise record of the winding riverbanks and the complex network of ridges that separate these arid gulches.
