1963 Map of Cherry Creek
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Sheeprock Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape, where the geology supported a significant cluster of early 20th-century mining operations. Concentrations of extraction activity are evident around Scotia Gulch and Eastern Gulch, featuring named workings like the Great Western King Mine, Ore Plata Mine, and Sullivan Shaft. This dense network of shafts and mines suggests a period of intensive prospecting in the rugged terrain northeast of the valley floor.
