1967 Map of North Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Continental Divide zigzags across this high-elevation landscape, marking the hydrological boundary between the Gunnison National Forest and the Rio Grande National Forest. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the terrain is defined by the Cochetopa Hills and two primary mountain crossings: North Pass and Cochetopa Pass. The map details a network of drainage systems including Luders Creek, Samora Creek, and Cantonment Creek, which carve out significant features like Taylor Canyon and Rabbit Canyon. While largely wilderness, the presence of the Luders Creek Campground and Buffalo Pass Campground alongside various Jeep Trails reflects the mid-century recreational use of these national forests. At the southern edge, the map identifies Moudy Bottom, illustrating the varied topography from high peaks to lower meadow basins.
