1938 Map of Mt. Gunnison

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

Gunnison National Forest and Grand Mesa National Forest dominate this landscape, surveyed in the late 1930s before the full modernization of the Western Slope. The map highlights a network of remote outposts and working land, from the Davenport Ranch to several seasonal high-country dwellings like Fire Mtn Cabin, Snowshoe Cabin, and Navajo Cabin. Along the North Fork Gunnison River, the settlements of Somerset and Oliver provide a glimpse into the regional mining and rail corridor.
