1971 Map of Little Pine Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Purgatoire River carves through the northern reaches of this landscape, where small settlements like Velasquez Plaza and Sarcillo sit along its banks. This 1971 survey captures a rugged network of drainage systems, including the extensive Lorencito Canyon and the branching Martinez Canyon. The area’s history is reflected in the Old R.R. Grade winding through the western canyons near the Ute Hills and the presence of the Quinto Mine in Cherry Canyon. Much of the central terrain is defined by the legacy of large land grants, noted here as part of the Beaubien and Miranda and Maxwell tracts. Local names like Oso Canyon and Pancho Canyon highlight the cultural imprint on this Las Animas County terrain, while the label Picketwire stands as a phonetic colloquialism for the river itself.
