2010 Map of Tooth of Time

About this map

The Cimarron Range dominates this portion of Colfax County, defined by a complex network of high-elevation camps and steep geological formations. A notable concentration of backcountry sites and trail camps, such as Cimarroncito Base Camp, Beaubien Camp, and Miners Park Camp, suggests a landscape heavily used for organized outdoor activities and exploration. The presence of the Cyphers Mine and its associated Cyphers Mine Camp near the North Fork Cimarroncito Creek reflects the region's historical ties to mining. Topographic landmarks like the iconic Tooth of Time and the sprawling Urraca Mesa serve as primary anchors for navigation. Water management is evident through features like the Cimarroncito Reservoir and Webster Dam, which support drainage for the various forks of Rayado Creek and Bonito Creek as they flow through the mountain passes.
