1964 Map of Lemon Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Lemon Reservoir dominates the lower central canyon of the Florida River, serving as a central hydrological feature within the San Juan National Forest. Captured shortly after the reservoir's completion in the early 1960s, the map detail focuses on the immediate impact of Lemon Dam on the surrounding wilderness. To the west, Missionary Ridge rises steeply, while the north is defined by a series of high parks including Big Bear Park and Little Bear Park. The landscape is characterized by its steep-walled drainages such as Youngs Canyon and McClure Gulch. Recreation and forest management are evident through established sites like Transfer Park Campground and Florida Campground, connected by the winding Timber Road and various Jeep Trails that penetrate the high country near Carbonate Basin.
