About this map

Uncompahgre National Forest dominates the high-elevation landscape of this 1967 survey, covering the formidable peaks of the San Juan Mountains including North Pole Peak and Hayden Peak. In the northern section, the high-country ranching and transit patterns of the era are visible across Howard Flats and Hastings. The map shows a clear shift from industrial to recreational land use, featuring a ski tow near the Dallas Divide, alongside the remnants of earlier infrastructure like the Old RR Grade.
