1977 Map of Big Marvine Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

White River National Forest encompasses this high-altitude landscape of the Colorado Rockies, dominated by the expansive plateau of the Flat Tops. The topography is defined by dramatic elevation changes, where massive volcanic peaks like Big Marvine Peak and Rat Mountain rise above a complex network of glacial basins and subalpine meadows. This 1970s survey captures the hydrologic importance of the area, as drainage from the Marvine Lakes and Big Fish Lake feeds into Marvine Creek and the South Fork White River. The transition from the high ridges of the Little Marvine Peaks down to the open expanse of The Meadows illustrates the diverse terrain within the Flat Tops Wilderness. This map reflects the careful photogrammetric work and field checks by the U.S. Forest Service to document one of the most distinctive alpine environments in the state.
