1967 Map of Twin Mountains

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates this 1967 survey, where high-altitude drainages and geological landmarks define the Saguache County terrain. The landscape is marked by a network of seasonal and perennial water sources, including La Garita Creek and Old Woman Creek, which are supplemented by named watering points like Usevia Springs and Sunday Spring. This area reflects a history of itinerant land use rather than permanent settlement, evidenced by the presence of a Stock Driveway, Pack Trail, and various Jeep Trails that navigate the slopes between Blue Mountain and Eagle Mountain. Mining history is visible in the scattered Prospects located near the southern reaches of the Twin Mountains. One of the more distinct natural landmarks noted is a Natural Arch on the eastern edge of the quadrangle, overlooking the head of Lopez Gulch.
