1965 Map of Indian Point

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Grand Mesa National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the plateau drops sharply toward the Mesa Co and Delta Co line. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic volcanic points and basins, most notably Indian Point and the high Coal Creek Basin. A network of historic paths, including the Service Pack Trail and the Camp Spring Trail, crisscross the area, tracing routes once vital for forest management and local ranching. Water management is a central theme of the topography, evidenced by high-altitude catchments like Chambers Reservoir and Doughspoon Reservoir. Along Kannah Creek, a lone Gaging Sta stands as a reminder of early water measurement efforts in these headwaters. The map illustrates a transitional wilderness where primitive Jeep Trails begin to supplement the older pack routes used by early settlers and foresters.
