2022 Map of Uncompahgre Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Henson sits at the convergence of mountain drainages in the southeastern corner of this Uncompahgre National Forest landscape, serving as a gateway to the high-altitude terrain of Hinsdale County. The area is defined by massive peaks including Uncompahgre Peak, Matterhorn Peak, and Sunshine Mtn, which surround a complex system of deep gulches and basins. The mapping detail reveals a history of resource extraction and transit through names like Lee Smelter Gulch, Big Casino Gulch, and the Iron Beds, alongside the Porphyry Basin. This network of Co RD 20 and numerous pack trails, such as the Ridge Stock Driveway Trl and Matterhorn Trl, illustrates the movement of livestock and minerals through these high passes. The Little Cimarron River and Henson Cr provide the primary hydrologic framework for a territory that has transitioned from intensive mining activity to managed wilderness.
