1963 Map of Bull Mountain

About this map

Harry Parker Place and the Hotchkiss Sheep Camp anchor this mid-century look at the high-elevation ranching and water-management landscape of the Gunnison National Forest. Located along the border of Delta and Gunnison Counties, the area is defined by its complex drainage systems, including West Muddy Creek and East Muddy Creek, which feed into the Aspen Leaf Reservoir and Ault Reservoir. These man-made features alongside natural landmarks like Floating Lake indicate the critical role of water storage in this mountainous environment.
