1954 Map of Mount Tyndall

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Rosita and the nearby settlement of Querida anchor the southwestern corner of this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by ranching and legacy mining operations. In the high terrain of the Wet Mountains, the map documents several historic family holdings, including the Armstrong Ranch, Jones Ranch, and Kness Ranch. The presence of the Dry Lake Sch (Aband) and the Babcock Mine suggests a transition in the local economy and social structure as older rural institutions were phased out during the 1950s. High-altitude landmarks like Mount Tyndall and Bear Peak rise above numerous drainage systems such as Dead Mule Gulch and Sevenmile Gulch. The northeastern portion of the sheet is largely occupied by the San Isabel National Forest, preserving the wilderness character of the Boneyard Park area.
