1966 Map of Wetherill Mesa

About this map

Mesa Verde National Park is documented here during a period of active mid-century topographic survey, revealing the high density of archaeological sites across Wetherill Mesa. The landscape is defined by its dramatic series of southern-reaching fingers including Long Mesa and Wildhorse Mesa, separated by deep incisions like Rock Canyon and Horse Canyon. A complex network of pack trails and established trails connects numerous ancient dwellings tucked into the cliffs, providing a clear spatial record of the park’s cultural resources before modern infrastructure expanded.
