1967 Map of Mount Sneffels

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Uncompahgre National Forest encompasses the high-altitude terrain shown here, where water management and mining historically shaped the San Juan Mountains landscape. The 1967 field check and subsequent 1980s updates reveal a complex network of ditches like the Ridgeway Town Ditch and Dutch Canyon Ditch, illustrating early water engineering efforts to divert flows from Dallas Creek across the high plateaus. Evidence of former industry remains visible through the Old RR Grade in the northwest and the Blaine Mine tucked into Blaine Basin near the southern peaks.
