1963 Map of Buckhorn Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Cimarron Ridge dominates the eastern landscape of this 1963 survey, forming a dramatic natural boundary between Ouray, Montrose, and Gunnison counties. The area is characterized by high-elevation water systems, including Buckhorn Lakes, Julien Lakes, and Onion Lakes, which feed the drainages of Beaton Creek and Onion Creek. Evidence of early 20th-century land use appears at the Comerer Ranch and the remote Julien Cabin, while a solitary Mine near the ridge suggests the historical search for mineral wealth in these peaks.
