About this map

White River National Forest and Routt National Forest coverage dominates this mid-1960s survey of the high-altitude landscape where Moffat, Routt, and Rio Blanco counties converge. The terrain is defined by dramatic peaks and drainage networks, with Big Sugarloaf Mountain and Horse Mountain rising above the headwaters of numerous creeks. A notable hydrological feature is the Sullivan Ditch, which redirects water across the mountain slopes, while a Gaging Sta monitors the flow along the South Fork Williams Fork. In the southern reaches of the quadrangle, high meadows like Salt Park and Lost Park provide a break in the timbered slopes. The presence of the Corral Creek Trail and various unimproved dirt roads suggests the area's primary uses for forestry, watershed management, and high-country recreation during this era.
