2011 Map of Pole Creek Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
The headwaters of the Rio Grande define this high-altitude landscape in San Juan County, where numerous alpine forks converge in a complex hydrographic network. The terrain is marked by significant peaks, including Half Peak, Carson Peak, and Bent Peak, which stand as sentinels over the deep drainage basins of Pole Creek and Lost Trail Creek. The presence of the Napoleon Mine indicates a history of mineral exploration tucked into these high ridges, while the Bristol Head Number 1 Dam at the southern edge of the sheet reflects the management of the region's vital water resources.
