1966 Map of Buford

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The confluence of the North Fork White River and the South Fork White River defines the small community of Buford, a key outpost for early explorers and hunters entering the high country. This mid-1960s survey documents the surrounding wilderness of the White River National Forest, where the landscape rises from the river valleys to the high plateau of The Flat Tops. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal routes, including the Jeep Trail and Pack Trail networks that weave through Buford Ridge and into the Peltier Basin. Land use and local water management are evident through named infrastructure like the Beckman Ditch and the 7041 Ditch, alongside essential forest service landmarks such as the Buford Ranger Sta. High-altitude lakes including Bailey Lake and Peltier Lake dot the basins, serving as critical landmarks for researchers and land historians studying the drainage patterns of the White River plateau.
