1964 Map of Glade Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

San Juan National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape in Dolores County, where a network of remote water management features served the cattle and sheep ranching interests of the mid-20th century. The topography is defined by the prominent Glade Mountain and the sharp rise of The Hogback, with numerous drainage systems like McKinney Draw and Willow Draw carving through the terrain. Evidence of seasonal grazing and forest management appears in the form of several small impoundments, including Disappointment Reservoir No 1 and Snag Reservoir. The map identifies critical water sources such as Glade Mtn Spring and Bradfield Spring, which supported livestock movement through the timber. A notable Lookout Tower sits atop the mountain summit, providing a central point for fire surveillance over the surrounding canyons and gulches, while The Glade trail offers a path through this high plateau.
