1962 Map of Indian Water Canyon

About this map

The Yampa River carves through the heart of Dinosaur National Monument in this mid-century survey of Moffat County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, where the river winds past Thanksgiving Gorge and Anderson Hole while passing the flat expanse of Deerlodge Park. Human presence is marked by isolated structures such as Stuts Cabin and the Spurgion Cabins, suggesting a history of seasonal ranching or early recreational use before the formal establishment of the Deerlodge Park Campground.
