1973 Map of Uncompahgre Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Uncompahgre National Forest dominates this landscape along the border of Mesa and Montrose Counties, where the high country of the Uncompahgre Plateau is deeply etched by drainage systems. The map illustrates a network of early ranching and grazing infrastructure during the early 1970s, evidenced by remote outposts like U C Cow Camp, Colcord Camp, and Montpelier. These sites sit amidst a complex geography of elevated flats and deep incisions, including Triangle Mesa, Franks Bench, and the prominent Uncompahgre Butte.
