This rare canvas-backed sheet is extraordinarily durable; the folding panel setup is ideal for historical study and would look excellent framed, with a folded size of 7 by 10 inches. This canvas-backed sheet is a 1907 edition of the San Cristobal quadrangle in southwestern Colorado, printed in 1930, mapped at 1:125,000 from field surveys done in 1904 and 1905 under geographer Henry Gannett. It covers a rugged stretch of the San Juan Mountains about 25 miles east of Silverton, taking in Santa Maria Lake and Emerald Lake, with portions of the San Juan and Rio Grande National Forests and ground that now lies within the Weminuche Wilderness.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The San Cristobal 30-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1904 and 1905.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the USGS 30-minute series have been out of print for many years. They have never been common and original prints are increasingly difficult to find. For areas where the 30-minute map was produced, it is usually the first large-scale survey done by the USGS for that area. These are a valuable historical record, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent series’ and editions.
