1971 Map of Tinaja Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Tinaja Mountain and the high plateaus of Colfax County define this landscape as it was documented in the early 1970s. The topography is dominated by extensive flat-topped features, including Blosser Mesa, Tinaja Mesa, and Dwyer Mesa, which are separated by dramatic drops and natural passage points like Blosser Gap. The map provides specific points of interest for local history, notably a small Cem located near the West Fork Tinaja Creek. Drainage patterns are clearly marked by the winding paths of Blosser Arroyo and Granny Creek, while reliable water sources are identified at Cottonwood Spring and other unnamed springs. Eagle Tail Road skirts the western edge of the mesas, tracing a route through this high-elevation terrain where individual peaks like Red Mountain and Green Mountain rise above the surrounding tablelands.
