1961 Map of Marcellina Mountain

About this map

Marcellina Mtn dominates the high-altitude landscape of western Colorado, marking a significant boundary between the White River National Forest and Gunnison National Forest. This 1961 field-checked survey illustrates a remote wilderness defined by steep drainages like North Anthracite Creek and Ruby Anthracite Creek, which carve through the Ruby Range. Human activity is primarily limited to seasonal stock grazing and transit, evidenced by the West Side Cow Camp and a network of livestock infrastructure including a labeled Driveway and the Trout Trail.
