1967 Map of Fairview Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Gunnison National Forest preserves a landscape of sharp vertical relief and high-altitude basins as they appeared in the late 1960s. The map centers on a series of distinct peaks including Fairview Peak, Square Top Mountain, and Terrible Mountain, which overlook a network of alpine lakes such as Henry Lake and the Lower Lamphier Lake. The presence of the Fairview Mine, Sandy Hook Mine, and Gold Link Mine along the lower drainages of Gold Creek reflects the region's enduring mining heritage. Movement through this wilderness is defined by established routes like the Gunsight Trail and Boulder Trail, which navigate through gaps like Gunsight Pass and along the formidable spine of Fossil Ridge. This survey documents the intersection of recreational space, seen at the Gold Creek Campground, with the older industrial footprint of the gold-bearing gulches.
