1954 Map of Mc Intosh Mountain

About this map

Ranching and early recreational developments characterize this mid-century landscape along the Gunnison River. Private holdings such as the Steuben Ranch, Steinbergen Ranch, and the Harris Hereford Ranch are situated in the lower valleys, reflecting the region's agricultural heritage before modern expansion. Along the river, the presence of the Neversink Resort and Coopers Resort indicates the growing importance of tourism and river-based leisure in the Gunnison area during the 1950s. High country to the north and west is dominated by the Gunnison National Forest, where steep drainages like Mc Kinley Gulch and Tommy Long Gulch descend from peaks such as Mc Intosh Mountain. The network of irrigation features, simply labeled as Ditch, illustrates the essential management of water moving from mountain streams like Antelope Creek and Beaver Creek to the valley floor.
