About this map

Gunnison National Forest dominates this mid-century topographic survey, revealing a high-elevation landscape defined by the towering Anthracite Range and East Beckwith Mtn. The map documents a primitive network of transportation essential to the local ranching and recreational economy of the 1960s, featuring numerous routes designated as Pack Trail or Jeep Trail. A notable human imprint is found at the Castle Creek Cow Camp, a site suggesting the seasonal movement of livestock through these high meadows.
