1966 Map of Sand Point

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Pinnacle Peak and Sand Point anchor this high-altitude landscape along the border of Routt and Rio Blanco counties. During the mid-1960s, this portion of the Routt National Forest was defined by its water management and early energy exploration. The terrain is marked by a complex network of alpine water bodies, including Crosho Lake, Allen Basin Reservoir, and Killarney Reservoir. Southward, the Little Flat Tops plateau dominates the geography, characterized by high-elevation lakes such as Crater Lake and Sand Lake. Evidence of industrial interest in these remote reaches appears through several Drill Holes, an Oil Well, and a Gas Well located near Trout Creek, signaling the era's push for resource extraction within the national forest boundaries.
