1980 Map of Cotopaxi

About this map

Cotopaxi and Coaldale sit at the northern edge of this high-country landscape, where the Arkansas and Rio Grande Western River carves through a steep canyon. This 1980 survey captures the rugged corridor of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad as it follows the river's path, serving as a vital transport link through the southern Colorado mountains. The southern half of the map is dominated by the San Isabel National Forest, a terrain of high peaks and basins including Wulsten Baldy and Price Park.
