1967 Map of Lake Mountain NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the waters of Saguache Creek flow through a complex system of drainages including Middle Creek and Jacks Creek. The map provides a clear record of 1960s land use and resource management, evidenced by the Gaging Sta along the creek and the presence of a Pipeline and Jeep Trail cutting through the terrain. For local historians, the Jacks Creek Cem and a nearby Mine offer a glimpse into the earlier settlement and industry of this mountainous region in Saguache County. Distinctive natural landmarks such as Castle Rock and Houghland Hill anchor the topography, while numerous gulches like Poison Gulch and Chico Gulch define the rugged character of the area just before more modern developments moved in.
