2013 Map of Washboard Rock

About this map

Big Cimarron Ranch and Watson Ranch highlight the working landscape of this Western Colorado high-country map, where the Cimarron River carves through a complex network of ditches and reservoirs. The intricate water management system is evident in labels like Veo Ditch, Butte Ditch, and the Cimarron Ditch, which redirect flow across the high mesas and basins. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Uncompahgre National Forest, containing high-altitude landmarks such as Monument Pass and the namesake Washboard Rock. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the interface between the forest boundary and private ranch lands, specifically around Wells Basin and the Big Cimarron Campground. High-elevation water bodies, including Fish Cr Reservoir Number 1 and Hampton Lake, are connected by primitive paths like the Fish Creek Reservoir Trl 6224.0.
