1963 Map of Comanche Point

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Midnight Mine and Anchor Mine stand as prominent markers of high-altitude extraction in this 1963 survey of the Sangre de Cristo range. Located within the Carson National Forest, the landscape is defined by deep canyons like Powderhouse Canyon and La Cueva Canyon that drain into the Costilla Creek system. The map documents a transition between early mining industry and seasonal recreation, evidenced by landmarks such as La Belle Lodge and La Cueva Camp. A complex network of jeep trails provides access to remote high-country features, including Ortiz Peak and the high pastures of Valle Vidal. The presence of the Grant Boundary cutting through the terrain reflects the legacy of historical land grants that continue to shape property and management in northern New Mexico.
