1966 Map of Indian Head

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Rio Grande winds through a landscape defined by ranching and rail infrastructure in the mid-1960s. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the river, passing through the small settlement of Hanna and crossing several tributaries. This section of the valley shows clear evidence of water management and local industry, with a Gaging Sta near the State Bridge and several Gravel Pits adjacent to the rail line. To the north, the terrain transitions into the Rio Grande National Forest, where the topography rises toward landmarks like Indian Head. The map's detailed drainage network includes Old Woman Creek and the Pinos Cr system, while a lonely Grave on a hillside north of the railroad provides a poignant touchstone for local historians and genealogists researching the residents of this high-country river valley.
