1972 Map of Castle Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Castle Peak and Winter Ridge define the high elevations of this Eagle County landscape as it was documented in the early 1970s. The area is marked by a complex network of pack and jeep trails winding through the drainage basins of Big Alkali Creek, Catamount Creek, and Castle Creek. Resource management and high-country habitation are evidenced by features like the Leonard Reap Spring Ditch and a Radio Facility located near the summit. The presence of several high-altitude water bodies, including Schlegel Lake, Picture Lake, and the Castle Creek Ponds, suggests a landscape used for both livestock grazing and seasonal recreation. To the east, the terrain transitions toward Horse Mountain and the distinct pass at Coberly Gap, illustrating the remote and specialized infrastructure required for this mountainous region of Colorado.
