1973 Map of Starvation Point

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Uncompahgre National Forest dominates this mid-1970s survey of the high plateaus along the boundary of Mesa and Montrose counties. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its seasonal grazing and resource extraction, anchored by the Fortyseven Cow Camp and the Columbine Guard Sta. To the south, the Copper King Mine overlooks Tabeguache Creek, while prominent landmarks like Starvation Point and The Tongue of Starvation mark the dramatic drop into the Tabeguache Basin.
