2022 Map of Mount Guero

About this map

Gunnison National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where deep drainages like the N Smith Fork Gunnison River and Curecanti Cr carve through a complex system of ridges and peaks. The map reveals a land defined by water management and recreational access, featuring the Virginia Ditch and Grand View Ditch alongside the Bald Mountain Reservoir. Notable peaks such as Mt Guero, Tater Heap, and the prominent Castle Rock provide dramatic vertical relief across the quadrangle. An extensive network of backcountry routes, including the Mendicant Ridge Trl and the specialized Crystal Creek Snowmobile/Ski Trl, suggests the area's importance for both summer trekking and winter sports within the national forest system.
