2022 Map of Pagosa Peak

About this map

Pagosa Peak dominates this high-altitude landscape within the San Juan National Forest, where the headwaters of numerous creeks carve through the Mineral and Archuleta county border. The map reveals an intricate network of drainage and water management, notably the Dutton Ditch and Dutton Pipeline, which divert water across the mountain slopes. Settlement is absent here, replaced by a system of primitive routes and specialized paths such as the Turkey Creek Trl and the Fourmile Stock Dr Trl, indicating the area's use for seasonal grazing and wilderness access. Distinctive natural landmarks like The Keyhole, Monk Rock, and Piedra Falls suggest a landscape defined by significant geological features. Higher elevations are marked by alpine water bodies including Fourmile Lake and Quien Sabe Lake, situated beneath peaks such as Spruce Mtn and Eagle Mtn.
