1954 Map of Little Soap Park

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Uranium Mine tucked into the drainages north of Oregon Gulch serves as a reminder of the mid-century prospecting era that touched this portion of the Gunnison National Forest. Based on 1950 aerial photography and a 1954 field check, the survey reveals a landscape of high-elevation mesas and deeply incised gulches, where human presence was largely defined by recreation and resource extraction. The map documents early accessibility via a network of routes like the Pack Trail and various ditches, connecting remote points such as Pearson Point and the high flats of Soap Mesa.
