1963 Map of Center Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

White River National Forest defines this high-altitude landscape in Garfield County, where the terrain transitions between steep drainages and prominent peaks. Early water management is evident through the Sykes and Alford Ditch near the northern boundary, while multiple summits like Center Mountain, Little Baldy Mountain, and Bald Mountain dominate the central topography. This 1963 survey captures the area at a time when navigation aids like the Airway Beacon and Radio Towers on Sunlight Peak served as critical landmarks for regional aviation. The map preserves the complex drainage patterns of Alkali Creek, Garfield Creek, and South Canyon Creek, showing how seasonal springs and gulches like Belodi Gulch and Log Road Gulch carved the montane environment before extensive modern development.
