1963 Map of Mc Carty Park

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Sangre De Cristo Range dominates this 1963 survey of the Colorado high country, where the borders of Costilla and Huerfano counties meet. At the northern edge, the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad crosses through Veta Pass, a critical mountain transit point. The landscape is characterized by high alpine parks and deep drainage systems, including Mc Carty Park and Elk Park. Evidence of early cattle ranching and mountain transit is visible at Mc Carty's Cow Camp, located along an old Wagon Road near the headwaters of the North Fork Trinchera Creek. In the south, the settlement of Dodgeton sits near Bennett Creek, while prominent summits like Harrison Peak and Napoleon Peak tower over the San Isabel National Forest.
