1961 Map of Blackhall Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Blackhall Mountain stands as the central landmark of this high-altitude landscape along the border of the Medicine Bow National Forest and Routt National Forest. The map documents a rugged timberline environment where human intervention is limited to resource extraction and infrastructure. A mine is located on the slopes of Wood Mountain, while high-altitude water management is visible through the Telephone Ditch and Highline Ditch. These narrow waterways, along with the Pack Trail winding through the mountains, indicate the historical efforts to navigate and utilize this steep terrain. The survey also captures the VABM Lookout 10979 at the summit, a critical vantage point for forest management. This era's hydrology is defined by the headwaters of the East Fork Encampment River and various branches of Big Creek flowing across the Wyoming and Colorado state line.
