1967 Map of Cumbres

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Denver and Rio Grande Western narrow-gauge rail line winds through the high-elevation landscape of the Rio Grande National Forest in this 1967 survey. The rail route is the centerpiece of the southern map area, marked by the iconic Cumbres Pass and the Cumbres Snow Shed at the settlement of Cumbres. This area showcases a transitional mountain economy where seasonal grazing and recreation overlap, illustrated by the La Manga Cow Camp and the La Manga Summer Home Group near La Manga Pass. Water management and recreation are central to the terrain, evidenced by the Trujillo Meadows Reservoir and its adjacent Trujillo Meadows Campground. Significant elevation markers such as Jarosa Peak and Neff Mountain dominate the central topography, while the Continental Divide Trail traces a path through the western reaches of the quadrangle.
