1954 Map of Gateview

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Gunnison River and Lake Fork Gunnison River carve through this high-elevation terrain south of Gunnison, meeting near the settlement of Gateview. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages and steep summits, including Round Mountain and Tolvar Peak. The presence of the Old Grade Railroad along the Lake Fork hints at the region's earlier industrial connectivity, while multiple labels for Mine (Inactive) and the Dubois Mine (Inactive) indicate a shift away from active extraction by the mid-1950s. Water remains the primary feature of interest for land use, evidenced by the Gaging Sta near the river confluence and the remote Goose Creek Spring. The map documents a sparsely populated area where cattle ranching and remnants of mining infrastructure coexist with numerous gulches like Dutch Gulch and Wildcat Gulch.
