1954 Map of Iris NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The boundary between Gunnison Co and Saguache Co cuts through this high-altitude landscape, where the New Mexico Principal Meridian serves as a primary surveying reference. The drainage pattern is dominated by Gold Basin Creek and Beaver Creek, with numerous smaller tributaries like Stubbs Gulch and Long Gulch etching deep into the terrain. A notable human element in this remote area is the isolated Landing Field (Emergency) located near the eastern edge of the survey, likely a critical waypoint for mid-century aviation crossing the mountain ranges.
