2013 Map of Cucharas Pass

About this map

Cuchara serves as the primary hub in this mountain corridor where State Hwy 12 winds through the San Isabel National Forest. This 2013 survey illustrates the recreational and ranching character of the high country, marking sites like the Cuchara Valley Ski Area and the Parsons Cow Camp. The map provides a look at the transition between Huerfano and Las Animas counties, defined by significant alpine crossings at Cucharas Pass and Cordova Pass. Peaks such as Middle White Peak and Boyd Mountain dominate the skyline, while a dense network of forest trails, including the Dodgeton Trail 1302 and Wildcat Trail 1312, suggests the area's long history of backcountry access and land management.
