2019 Map of Osier

About this map

Osier and Osier Park sit within the high-elevation terrain of the Rio Grande National Forest along the southern edge of Colorado. This landscape is defined by the deep incisions of the Rio de los Pinos and the Los Pinos River, where the terrain drops sharply into Toltec Canyon. The map reveals a high-country network of water and peaks, including the prominence of McIntyre Peak to the north and Osier Mtn near the center of the quadrangle. The presence of FDR 103 suggests the limited but vital access routes through these timbered slopes and alpine meadows. Drainage systems like Bear Cr, Cascade Cr, and the Conejos River illustrate the complex watershed of the southern San Juan mountains, while names like Alameditas Mesa and Pinorealosa Mtn reflect the region's cultural and geographic heritage.
