1964 Map of Lone Cone

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Miramonte Reservoir and the expansive Greager Flats define this high-altitude landscape on the boundary of the Uncompahgre National Forest and San Juan National Forest. During the mid-1960s, the area served as active rangeland, evidenced by several seasonal outposts including Redd Ranchs Summer Camp, Barrett Cow Camp, and Davis Sheep Camp. The terrain is deeply incised by the drainage systems of West Naturita Creek and Middle Naturita Creek, which flow north from the towering peak of Lone Cone. Researchers will find a network of resource-related infrastructure, such as the Beef Trail Road, the Lilylands Reservoir, and a Radio Tower, illustrating the era's balance of livestock management and early communication developments within the rugged San Miguel and Dolores county borderlands.
