1966 Map of Triangle Park

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

White River National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Garfield County, where the topography is shaped by deep drainages like Irish Gulch and Snowdrift Gulch. The map captures a working wilderness in the mid-1960s, evidenced by the Mud Spring Ranch and several corral sites situated near the namesake Triangle Park. Transportation is focused on the New Castle Buford Road, which provides access to recreational landmarks such as Coulter Lake and the Three Forks Campground. The presence of Dynamite Lake and numerous named springs, including Orphan Spring and G V Spring, highlights the critical importance of water management in this mountainous terrain. Ridges and mesas, such as Stump Ridge and Outer Mesa, divide the various forks of North Elk Creek, illustrating the complex watershed patterns that dictate the movement of people and livestock through the forest.
