1961 Map of Blackhall Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Blackhall Mountain and Wood Mountain dominate the high-altitude terrain along the border of Wyoming and Colorado during this early 1960s survey. This portion of the Medicine Bow National Forest and Routt National Forest is defined by a complex drainage network, where the East Fork Encampment River and various branches of Big Creek, such as North Fork Big Creek and Middle Fork Big Creek, carve through the landscape. Evidence of early resource extraction and communication is present via a solitary Mine and an extensive Telephone Line that traverses the northern slopes. The map captures the infrastructure of the backcountry, from a network of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails to named watercourses like Beaver Creek and McAnulty Creek. The presence of the State Line between Carbon and Jackson Counties marks the administrative divide in this high-country wilderness.
