1964 Map of Almont

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Almont serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, marking the confluence where the East River and Taylor River join to form the Gunnison River. The landscape is a study in transition, with valley settlements like Jacks Cabin and agricultural infrastructure such as the Gunnison Canal set against the rising elevations of the Gunnison National Forest. A notable presence of the region's transport history is visible in the Old Railroad Grade running parallel to the rivers, tracing a path through the valley floor near the Roaring Judy Fish Hatchery. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous gulches and canyons, including Fisher Gulch and Browns Canyon, which illustrate the drainage patterns feeding into the main river systems. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by scattered mines and a Gravel Pit, while local genealogy is represented by a hilltop Cem near the river banks.
