1963 Map of Bull Mountain

About this map

The high ranching and grazing lands of the Gunnison National Forest are documented here in the early 1960s, a landscape defined by seasonal camps and water management. Isolated outposts such as Harry Parker Place, Patterson Place, and the Hotchkiss Sheep Camp indicate the area's importance for livestock during this era. These family-named landmarks are connected by a network of primitive routes, including the Drift Trail and Roberts Trail, which navigate the complex drainage systems of Muddy Creek and Henderson Creek.
