1973 Map of Columbine Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Needle Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape within the San Juan National Forest, where jagged peaks like Mount Eolus and Windom Peak rise above glaciated basins. The 1970s terrain reveals a legacy of water management and resource extraction, notably the City Reservoir (Durango Res No 1) and the Pittsburg Mine located along Missouri Gulch. The presence of the Logtown (Site) near Lake Marie points to a vanished era of mountain activity, likely associated with the timber or mining industries that once thrived in these elevations.
