1967 Map of South Fork West

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Rio Grande and the South Fork Rio Grande converge in this high-altitude landscape of southern Colorado, where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the river's path. This late-1960s survey documents a region defined by recreational and agricultural outpostings within the Rio Grande National Forest, including Masonic Park and Riverside Ranch. Small clusters of development at South Fork and Baxterville anchor the local geography, while the upland terrain is marked by numerous Pack Trails, stock driveways, and specialized infrastructure like the Alder Guard Station. The presence of Sentinel Peak and the deep incisions of Haney Canyon and Poison Gulch illustrate the complex drainage patterns feeding into the valley floor before the arrival of extensive modern highway expansion.
