1994 Map of Rosita

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Rosita and Querida sit at the center of this mountain landscape, reflecting a region defined by historical mining activity and high-altitude ranching. Evidence of the area's extraction history is visible through numerous prospects and a Perlite Quarry located near Pioneer Cem. The terrain is characterized by the prominent Rosita Hills and a series of named peaks including Pocahontas Hill, Mount Fairview, and Mount Robinson. To the east, the boundary of the San Isabel National Forest borders the high meadows of Junkins Park. The drainage network, featuring Cottonwood Gulch and Antelope Creek, illustrates the complex topography that early settlers and miners navigated. Established family operations like the Smith Ranch and Hobbs Ranch are documented alongside a remote Landing Strip, showing how this isolated Custer County terrain was accessed in the late twentieth century.
