1965 Map of Indian Point

About this map

Grand Mesa National Forest dominates this mid-1960s survey of the high plateau country where Mesa County meets Delta County. The landscape is defined by a complex network of drainage basins and high-altitude water management, with Coal Creek Basin to the north and the expansive Alkali Basin to the south. Water resources are carefully monitored, as evidenced by a Gaging Sta along Kannah Creek, which flows through the heart of the mesa alongside Cheever Creek and Cottonwood Creek.
