1960 Map of Leon Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

High-altitude water management systems define this Colorado landscape as recorded during a 1960 field check. The area is characterized by a network of drainage and storage, including the Lambert Reservoir and Kenny Creek Reservoir, which likely served the surrounding agricultural or ranching communities at the edge of the Delta County line. These man-made features are connected by natural drainages like Youngs Creek and Pretty Creek, illustrating the vital role of snowmelt capture in this environment. To the north, Youngs Lake and Anderson Reservoir provide further evidence of the systematic development of water resources on the mesa during the mid-twentieth century.
