2013 Map of McIntosh Mountain

About this map

The Gunnison National Forest dominates this landscape north of the Gunnison River, where high mountain terrain is carved by a complex network of drainages including April Gulch, McKinley Gulch, and Black Gulch. The southern portion of the map transitions into the Curecanti National Recreation Area, reflecting the area's development for outdoor recreation and water management. Early ranching footprints remain visible through named properties like the Harris Hereford Ranch, Steinbergen Ranch, and Steuben Ranch, which occupy the more accessible valley floors. Primitive transportation routes such as the Sun Creek Jeep Trl 9637.0 and Black Gulch Trl 9574.0 provide access to the higher elevations around McIntosh Mountain, while Neversink Resort and Coopers Resort highlight the intersection of commercial hospitality and the natural environment at the river's edge.
