1967 Map of Sanborn Park

About this map

Uncompahgre National Forest dominates this 1967 survey of the plateau lands between Horsefly Trail and the deep incision of Craig Canyon. The map reveals a landscape managed for timber and ranching, evidenced by the McKeever Sawmill and a dedicated Logging Camp near Logging Camp Draw Reservoir. Small-scale water management is the defining human footprint here, with dozens of named catchments like Middle Sanborn Park Reservoir, Tarantula Reservoir, and Fisher Reservoir dotting the Horsefly Bench.
