1967 Map of Hotchkiss Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Uncompahgre National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where a sophisticated network of small-scale water management supported mid-century high-country activities. The map reveals a high density of specialized camps such as P D C Camp, Galloway Camp, and Jutten Camp, likely serving seasonal workers or grazing operations across the San Miguel and Montrose County lines. This hydrological infrastructure is particularly dense, featuring numerous named reservoirs like Hotchkiss Reservoir, Barnes Mill Reservoir, and Tikka Reservoir along with family-named sources such as Edmondson Spring and Turkey Plot Spring. The presence of the Horsefly Trail and various unpaved roads through Coyote Knob indicates a region defined by its reliance on forestry and livestock movement during the late 1960s.
