1972 Map of Trapper

About this map

Routt National Forest and White River National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape in north-central Colorado, where the water-management infrastructure of the early 1970s is clearly visible. The region is defined by a network of ranch-oriented water systems including the Sterner Reservoir, Crossan Reservoir, and the Five Pine Mesa Ditch, all vital for supporting agriculture in Egeria Park. Small outposts like Watson and Trapper mark the limited human footprint in this terrain, which is otherwise characterized by dramatic features like Porcupine Ridge and the broad Five Pine Mesa. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad corridor tracks alongside Chimney Creek in the northeast corner, providing a critical transport link through the mountains. Specialized land use is further evidenced by the Finger Rock Fish Hatchery located near Phillips Creek, serving the local ecosystem and waterways.
