2013 Map of Thompson Park
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
San Juan National Forest defines the northern reaches of this landscape, where the La Plata Mountains rise sharply. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages like Cherry Cr and Cottonwood Cr, creating a network of ridges and basins such as Twin Canyon Basin and Schoolhouse Canyon. High points including Menefee Mountain and Menefee Peak overlook the central valley of Thompson Park. This area reveals a transition from the high-altitude forest to the complex gulches of the south, such as Deadman Gulch and Devils Canyon. Local history is anchored at the Thompson Park Cem and through various historical transport routes, including the Old Gold Run Trail 168 and the evocative Narrow Gauge Trail 373, reflecting the region's legacy of mountain passage and resource development.
