Mining operations and family ranchlands define this corner of the Colorado high country, where deep drainages like Mack Gulch and Wilson Creek cut through the granite landscape. The map reveals a dense concentration of mineral extraction sites southwest of Cover Mountain, including the Colorado Feldspar Company Mine, Climax Mica Mine, and the Star Girl Mine. These sites, alongside numerous prospects like the Whopper Mine, underscore the area's geological value for industrial minerals rather than precious metals.
