1967 Map of Saguache Park

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Continental Divide defines the crest of this high mountain landscape, where the Cochetopa Hills meet the expansive meadowlands of Saguache Park. This 1967 field-checked survey highlights the transition between the Gunnison National Forest to the north and the Rio Grande National Forest to the south. Central to the map is the Stone Cellar Guard Station, a key administrative site situated near the confluence of the Middle Fork and Saguache Creek. The terrain is marked by numerous watercourses such as Little North Fork Rio Grande and Miners Creek, along with prominent landmarks like Chimney Rock. A network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails indicates a remote region primarily utilized for forest management and backcountry access, with labels like Mexican Joe Gulch preserving local family or prospector names.
