1969 Map of Craig NW

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Dressler and the surrounding high desert terrain of Moffat County define this 1969 topographic survey. The landscape is deeply incised by a network of seasonal drainages, including the North Fork Big Gulch and Blue Gravel Creek. This area of Northwest Colorado shows a transition from agricultural land use to early industrial exploration, evidenced by a scattering of resource-gathering points. In the southern portion of the map, features such as a Drill Hole and several Prospects indicate the region's historical connection to mining and geological surveys. The drainage patterns of West Timberlake Creek and Housel Gulch provide a detailed look at the local watershed before more modern development altered the high-plains geography of the Craig vicinity.
