1960 Map of Haystack Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Roosevelt National Forest defines this high-country landscape, where the headwaters of the Rabbit Creek system carve through steep terrain. Settlers and ranchmen in the early 1960s occupied isolated pockets like Log Cabin and Stuart Hole, while the Lone Pine Sch served as a remote educational outpost for families in the area. The map reveals a land utilized for both natural resources and seasonal grazing, evidenced by the Simons Quarry and expansive labels like Prairie Divide. A network of unimproved dirt tracks and the Red Feather Lakes Road provide the primary access through the canyons. This topographic study captures the transition between high prairies and mountain peaks, including landmarks such as Sheep Mountain and Haystack Butte, before more modern developments altered the rural character of this Larimer County region.
