1967 Map of Ojito Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Sangre De Cristo Grant lands dominate this high-altitude landscape, showing the complex history of private land tenure in southern Colorado during the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by the prominent Ojito Peak and a network of drainages including Ojito Creek and the North Fork Trinchera Creek. Evidence of resource use is scattered throughout the survey, from a solitary Mine in the south to a Corral and Gaging Sta further north, suggesting a landscape shared by mineral extraction and livestock grazing. Water management is centered at the Willow Creek Reservoir, while the southern reaches follow the flow of Rito Seco through Big Meadow. This 1967 survey captures a remote region primarily accessed by a network of Jeep Trail paths, illustrating the persistent isolation of the high mountain drainages before modern development or intensive infrastructure expansion.
