1962 Map of Grouse Mountain

About this map

Baryeta Cabins sit tucked in the high timber of the White River National Forest, reflecting the era of remote mountain habitations before the expansion of modern resorts. This mid-century landscape is defined by its industrial and agricultural water systems, from the subterranean works of the Discovery Tunnel and Ohio Tunnel to the gravity-fed Fleck Ditch and Howard Ditch. The network of high-altitude water bodies, including the Upper Turquoise Lake and Lower Turquoise Lake, highlights the importance of mountain runoff to the region. To the north, the terrain transitions through open areas like McCoy Park and Snowslide Park, while drainage systems like Bachelor Gulch and Creamery Gulch descend toward the valleys. The presence of an unnamed Mine and various ditch systems like the Bragg No 1 Ditch point to the dual reliance on mineral extraction and water rights in this part of Eagle County.
