1967 Map of Klondike Mine

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest terrain dominates this Saguache County survey, where the peaks of Sheep Mountain and Bonita Hill define a landscape shaped by mining and high-altitude ranching. The namesake Klondike Mine sits at the head of Findley Gulch, surrounded by several prospects that point to the area's mineral exploration history. These isolated workings are connected by a network of drainage systems like Sawlog Gulch and Lucky Boy Gulch, which feed into the more prominent Kerber Creek. Small seasonal camps and geographic markers such as Woodard Cow Camp and Spook City indicate the transient nature of mountain settlement during this era. Water sources are critical in this environment, evidenced by numerous named points like Bachichi Spring, Garcia Spring, and Alkali Spring. A solitary pipeline and various jeep trails crossing Ute Pass provide the only modern infrastructure through these rugged canyons.
