1963 Map of Mineral Mountain

About this map

Mineral Mountain anchors this high-elevation landscape in the Gunnison National Forest as it appeared in the early 1960s. The topography is defined by the deep carving of Cebolla Creek and its many tributaries, such as Calf Creek and Martinez Creek. A notable historical detail is the location of Cathedral (Aband) near the confluence of Cathedral Creek and Cebolla Creek, indicating a site of previous human activity that had faded by the time of the survey.
