1966 Map of Thirteenmile Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Grand Hogback dominates the central topography of this mid-1960s survey, marking a dramatic geological transition between Rio Blanco and Garfield Counties. This region of the White River National Forest is defined by a complex network of drainages, most notably Thirteenmile Creek and Fourteenmile Creek, which carve deep through the high-elevation terrain. Access to the area is primarily through an network of jeep trails and older tracks, including the Ute Stock Driveway in the southeast corner. The presence of several Gravel Pits along the creek beds suggests localized resource extraction during this era, while the Piceance Creek Road follows the lower elevations of Piceance Creek, serving as a vital corridor for the remote ranching and grazing lands of the Colorado plateau.
