1993 Map of Rock Crossing

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Fort Carson Military Reservation (Piñon Canyon Maneuver Site) dominates this high-plains landscape, which was updated in the early 1990s to reflect military use and topographic detail. The terrain is defined by deep incisions from ephemeral watercourses, most notably Big Water Arroyo and the winding Taylor Arroyo. These natural drainages converge near the landmark known as Rock Crossing, a site suggesting a historical point of transit across the arroyo system. Infrastructure within the maneuver site is sparse, consisting largely of the Pipeline Road and scattered water sources such as a Spring, several labeled wells, and a Water Tank. The map illustrates the transition of traditional ranching land into a large-scale military training area, preserving the names of the hydraulic features that remain central to navigating this arid environment.
