1967 Map of Sand Creek Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Roosevelt National Forest spans the high-elevation terrain where Larimer County, Colorado, meets Albany County, Wyoming. This late 1960s survey documents a landscape defined by significant drainage systems and prominent landmarks like the massive Bull Mountain and the sprawling Boulder Ridge. Movement through this high-country environment is facilitated by a network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails, emphasizing the area's use for remote access and forestry management rather than permanent settlement. The hydrology is particularly well-detailed, showing the headwaters of Shell Creek, Sand Creek, and Dry Creek. Of specific interest to those tracking historic water sources are several named locations like Jimmy Spring and Jimmy Creek Spring, which provided reliable water at the Sand Creek Pass crossing during an era of expanding back-country recreation and land management.
