1968 Map of Harrence Lake

About this map

The Russell Lakes wetland complex dominates this high valley floor in Saguache County, forming an intricate network of water and terrain. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map reveals a landscape defined by its hydrology, where numerous Flowing Wells supplement the natural flow of Russell Creek and La Garita Creek. This area serves as a critical aquatic habitat, highlighted by the presence of a Fish Hatchery and several named bodies of water including Harrence Lake, Island Lake, and Davey Lake. The mapping of drainage features like Werner Arroyo and Bull Arroyo alongside extensive fence lines illustrates the management of this open range for both irrigation and ranching during the mid-twentieth century.
