1970 Map of Willow Lakes

About this map

The Gore Range forms a formidable spine across this high-altitude survey, serving as the boundary between the Arapaho National Forest and White River National Forest. At the time of this photogrammetric survey, the landscape was largely defined by the protected wilderness of the Eagles Nest Wilderness and a complex hydrological network feeding into the Blue River. Traces of earlier extractive industry remain at the Boss Mine and various unnamed prospects scattered along the slopes of Keller Mountain.
