1961 Map of Gothic

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Gothic stands as a focal point in this high-altitude landscape, situated where Copper Creek meets the East River. The area reflects a transition from early extraction to recreation, with various Mines and Prospects scattered across the Elk Mountains while a Ski Tow and Gondola Lift indicate the growing importance of winter sports near Crested Butte. The terrain is defined by massive peaks including Avery Peak, White Rock Mountain, and Teocalli Mountain, separated by high basins like Queen Basin and Conundrum Basin. Local transit is represented by a network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails crossing high points like Copper Pass and Triangle Pass. Evidence of earlier land use remains visible at the Cem near the Slate River and the Brush Creek Cow Camp, providing a detailed look at the agricultural and social history of Gunnison County during the early 1960s.
