1964 Map of East Evacuation Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Oil Spring Mountain dominates the northeastern corner of this western Colorado landscape, which sits along the border of Rio Blanco and Garfield counties. During the mid-1960s, the area remained largely a wilderness defined by a complex network of drainages including Missouri Creek and the bifurcated branches of East Evacuation Creek and West Evacuation Creek. Human activity is primarily evidenced by scattered resource exploration and seasonal land use, seen in the several Drill Hole markers and a lonely Corral located near the center of the sheet. Traces of earlier occupation or temporary shelters appear as Ruins south of the Chain Canyon confluence. The topography is deeply incised by numerous named draws such as Timber Canyon, Calf Canyon, and Bear Canyon, connected by a series of primitive jeep trails that follow the winding creek beds and ridgelines.
