Weminuche Pass serves as a critical high-altitude junction where the Continental Divide separates the headwaters of the Rio Grande from the Los Pinos River drainage. This 2023 survey illustrates the complex hydrology of the high country, featuring man-made irrigation efforts like the Raber Lohr Ditch and Fuchs Ditch alongside the sprawling Rio Grande Reservoir. The landscape is characterized by its alpine basins and named flats, including Stage Station Flat and the curiously named Horse Thief Pasture.
