1966 Map of Red Elephant Point

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

White River National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape on the border of Rio Blanco and Garfield Counties. The 1960s terrain is characterized by a complex network of seasonal movements, evidenced by the numerous cow camps and specialized trails throughout the area. In the northern reaches, Miller Creek Cow Camp and T I Cow Camp sit near drainage systems like Miller Creek and Fourmile Creek. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the prominent Red Elephant Point and the expansive Coulter Mesa. This era of land management is captured through features like the Bar H L Guard Station and the long Ute Stock Driveway, which cuts across the high parks and ridges. Water resources are scattered but vital, including Bloodsworth Pond, Trojan Lake, and smaller irrigation or livestock improvements like the Howey Reservoir.
