1964 Map of Lemon Reservoir

About this map

Lemon Reservoir dominates this high-altitude landscape within the San Juan National Forest, capturing the waters of the Florida River. Established as a primary water storage facility, the reservoir is anchored by the Lemon Dam at its southern end, providing a focal point for the region's recreational and hydrological systems. The terrain is defined by the prominent Missionary Ridge to the west and the expansive Weminuche Wilderness to the north, characterized by a complex network of canyons and gulches like McCoy Gulch and Stump Canyon. This 1964 survey captures the area's infrastructure for mountain access, including the Bear Creek Campground and Transfer Park Campground. The map also reveals older topographic naming conventions such as Horse Thief Park and Kroeger Park, alongside smaller alpine features like Mcclure Reservoir and the Stump Lakes.
