1960 Map of Leon Peak

About this map

Leon Peak rises as the central landmark of this high-elevation landscape within the Grand Mesa National Forest. The 1960 field check reveals an intricate network of water management, where numerous small bodies of water like Leon Lake, Colby Horse Park Reservoir, and Island Res are linked by topographic features and infrastructure. The presence of the Leon Tunnel and several aqueducts underscores the systematic effort to capture and direct snowmelt across the plateau for downstream use in Delta and Mesa counties.
