1964 Map of Pagosa Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Pagosa Peak dominates the high alpine terrain of the San Juan National Forest, where the transition from high ridgelines to deep river valleys defines the local topography. In the mid-1960s, this area of Mineral and Archuleta counties remained largely undeveloped, characterized by remote outposts like Minor Notch Ranch and Cade Ranch. The landscape is etched by a complex network of water management and transit routes, including the Piedra Ditch and the Fourmile Stock Trail, which underscore the region's historical reliance on seasonal grazing and high-altitude irrigation. Significant landmarks such as The Steel Bridge and Piedra Falls provide orientation points along the waterways. The presence of Windy Pass and named summits like Cade Mountain and Eagle Mountain highlights the formidable natural barriers that shaped early travel and land use in this part of the Colorado Rockies.
