1962 Map of Red Pinnacle

About this map

Mount Logan and Red Pinnacle dominate this high-desert terrain of Garfield County, where deep canyons and drainage systems define the landscape. This early 1960s survey records a network of gulches including Gilman Gulch, Bowdish Gulch, and Riley Gulch, illustrating the complex watershed feeding into the Colorado River at the sheet's southern edge. In the lowlands near the river, human intervention is visible through the Bluestone Valley Ditch and the tracks of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. Higher elevations are marked by isolated Cabins and water sources like Hayward Spring and Pritchard Spring. The presence of the Bowdish Trail and Tourist Run suggests established routes through the steep topography, while labels like Shale point to the geological composition and potential industrial interest of the region during this era.
