About this map

Rio Grande National Forest and the Weminuche Wilderness dominate this high-altitude landscape in Mineral County, defined by the headwaters of the Rio Grande and numerous mountain drainages. The map details a rugged transition from alpine peaks like Mc Clelland Mountain and Turret Peak to the basin containing Lake Humphreys and Hay Press Lake. Evidence of early resource exploration is visible through scattered Mine and Prospects labels near the northern boundary, while a Hot Spring and Well near Goose Creek suggest the area's geothermal and hydrological value. The network of trails, including the Highline Trail, follows the Wilderness Boundary, tracing routes through drainages such as Leopard Creek and Roaring Fork that have served as vital corridors for backcountry access and forest management in the southern Rockies.
