1969 Map of Coffeepot Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Vermillion Bluffs dominate the central landscape of this Moffat County region, located just south of the Wyoming Colorado state line. This 1968 photogrammetric survey captures a high-desert environment defined by dramatic elevation changes and a scattered network of resource extraction. The area's hydrology is primarily seasonal, with drainages like Shell Creek and Beaver Draw cutting through the terrain, while the namesake Coffeepot Spring provides a rare localized water source in the southeastern corner. Industrial activity in the late 1960s is evident through multiple Drill Holes and a prominent Pipeline traversing the northern section near Shell. These features, alongside landmarks like Racetrack Flat and Yellow Cat Wash, reflect a remote territory shaped by both natural erosion and mid-century energy exploration.
