2001 Map of Lake Mountain NE

USGS Topo · Published 2005

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates the northern reaches of this Colorado landscape, where high-altitude drainage systems carve a complex network of gulches and draws. The central hydrological feature is Saguache Creek, which winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle. Along its banks, a Gaging Sta and nearby Gravel Pit indicate localized infrastructure and resource extraction. Evidence of early land use and prospecting appears in the hills, including a Mine situated near the headwaters of Jacks Creek. Near this drainage, the Jacks Creek Cem serves as a critical point of interest for genealogists researching rural mountain burials. The terrain is marked by prominent landmarks such as Castle Rock and Houghland Hill, while a subterranean Pipeline cuts across the eastern topography. The map illustrates a landscape of high-country ranching and forest management, defined by seasonal water sources like Ford Creek and Middle Creek.
