1967 Map of Dog Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates this section of the high country, where a network of watercourses and primitive tracks defines the landscape. The terrain is centered around high points like Dog Mountain and Pup Peak, with drainage systems including San Francisco Creek and the branching Raton Creek network. Evidence of mountain passage and early land use is found in the Bonafacio Trail and several Pack Trails and Jeep Trails that traverse the gulches. A single Dry Creek Corral near the southern boundary suggests seasonal ranching activity or livestock management in an otherwise wild environment. For hydrologists and local historians, the presence of a Gaging Sta on the upper reaches of the creek provides a specific point of reference for historical water management and stream monitoring in this drainage basin.
