1960 Map of Hawxhurst Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

White River National Forest and Grand Mesa National Forest dominate this 1960 landscape, where the high-altitude topography of the Grand Mesa drops into a complex network of gulches and creeks. This era of land use is characterized by seasonal livestock grazing and water management, evidenced by remote outposts like Rincon Cow Camp and Hawxhurst Cow Camp. Essential high-country water resources are marked by the Battlement Reservoirs, Watson Reservoir, and McCurry Reservoir. In the southern portion of the sheet, the terrain levels out near the Salt Plateau and The Peninsula, where Buzzard Creek flows. Local history is anchored by the Clover Cem near the southern boundary, providing a vital point of reference for genealogists tracing early families in this part of Mesa County. The network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails, such as the Battlement Trail, reveals how the area was navigated before modern infrastructure reached these high elevations.
