1963 Map of Center Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Garfield Creek State Wildlife Area dominates the northern reaches of this Colorado landscape, characterized by a complex network of high ridges and drainage gulches. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks including Center Mountain, Little Baldy Mountain, and Baid Mountain, while the southeastern corner reaches toward Sunlight Peak. Water management and aviation history are evident through features like the Sykes and Alford Ditch near Alkali Creek and an Airway Beacon positioned on the eastern heights. The southern portion of the map transitions into the White River National Forest, where Fourmile Park provides a break in the topography. This 1963 survey, with updates from the 1980s, captures the region's character as a managed wilderness area where early irrigation infrastructure and modern communication tools like Radio Towers coexist among the headwaters of Garfield Creek and the West Fork.
