1962 Map of Meaden Peak

About this map

Meaden Peak and Sand Mountain anchor the southern reaches of this high-elevation landscape within the Routt National Forest. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the map reveals a rugged backcountry network of jeep trails and pack trails serving early ranching operations like the Jolley Ranch and Smith Ranch. The terrain is defined by dramatic summits such as Nipple Peak and Diamond Peak, which overlook a complex watershed including the South Fork Little Snake River and Willow Creek Lake. The broad openings of Slater Park and California Park contrast with the steep drainages of Torso Creek and Armstrong Creek. This mapping reflects an era of resource management and livestock grazing before modern development, where remote mountain access was limited to traditional trails and unimproved roads used by local ranchers and early forest rangers.
