1967 Map of Dog Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape of southern Colorado, where the terrain is defined by complex drainage systems and named peaks. The water network is highly detailed, featuring the convergence of the North Fork American Creek and South Fork American Creek alongside seasonal drainages like Dry Pole Creek and Limekiln Creek. A notable landmark is Deadmans Cave, positioned on the western slopes of a ridge system between Dog Mountain and Pup Peak. The map provides evidence of land use through the presence of a Dry Creek Corral and a Gaging Sta along San Francisco Creek. Remote access is indicated by the Gopher Trail and Bonafacio Trail, which navigate the steep canyons and gulches of the Rio Grande backcountry during the late 1960s.
