1970 Map of Rotten Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Powder Rim dominates this high-desert landscape along the Wyoming and Colorado border, a massive geologic feature that dictated the paths of early travel. The historical Cherokee Trail Road skirts the base of these cliffs, following a route used by emigrants and travelers through this arid territory. Evidence of 20th-century land use is seen in the numerous small reservoirs and improvements designed to capture scarce water, such as Hunter Res and Flat Draw Res.
