1967 Map of Cucharas Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Cuchara and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the San Isabel National Forest are documented in this 1967 survey. The landscape is defined by the continental divide of the Sangre de Cristo Range, featuring prominent elevations like Middle White Peak and South White Peak. Transportation across these heights is limited to key crossings such as Cucharas Pass and Cordova Pass, while the drainage network splits between the Cucharas River flowing north and the North Fork Purgatoire River heading south. Local activity is centered around seasonal and agricultural outposts like Parsons Cow Camp and recreational sites including the Cuchara Campground and Potato Patch Campground. The presence of several named trails, such as the Peaks Trail and West Peak Trail, indicates a landscape largely managed for forestry and grazing at the time of the 1966 aerial photography and 1967 field check.
