1963 Map of Wetterhorn Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Wetterhorn Peak and the high ridges of the Uncompahgre National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape along the border of Ouray and Hinsdale counties. The 1963 survey illustrates a wilderness defined by its dramatic vertical relief, from the depths of Wetterhorn Basin to the sharp heights of Coxcomb Peak and Precipice Peak. While the terrain is largely primitive, the map reveals the era's mining and exploration footprint through a scattering of prospects and an identified mine near the headwaters of Cow Creek.
