1966 Map of Sand Point

About this map

Routt National Forest dominates this high-country landscape along the border of Routt and Rio Blanco counties in the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of high-altitude water management and natural drainage, with prominent features like Pinnacle Peak and Bellyache Mountain rising above numerous named reservoirs. The concentration of man-made water storage, such as Allen Basin Reservoir, Chapman Reservoir, and Killarney Reservoir, suggests a highly managed watershed designed to support the lower elevations of the Colorado high plains.
