1963 Map of Powderhorn Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Powderhorn Lakes sit at the southern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the Gunnison Co Hinsdale Co line marks a remote boundary through the San Juan Mountains. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Indian Creek, Trout Creek, and the many branches of the Powderhorn Creek. The presence of Prospects near Phelps Cabin and the sprawling Cannibal Plateau indicates a history of mineral exploration and seasonal livestock grazing in these high basins.
