1967 Map of Trickle Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the late 1960s, where complex drainage networks define the terrain. Remote outposts like the Upper Saguache Guard Station provided a vital human presence for forest management and monitoring of the vast watershed feeding into Saguache Creek. The geography is characterized by deep incisions like East Pass Canyon and Rabbit Canyon, while the prominent summit of Trickle Mountain anchors the eastern side of the survey. Numerous prospects scattered across the gulches suggest a history of mineral exploration, particularly near Lone Tree Gulch. This period of mapping shows a reliance on a extensive network of jeep trails for access through the backcountry, connecting isolated water sources such as Alkali Spring and the Lone Pine Reservoir.
