1938 Map of Mt Gunnison

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

North Fork Gunnison River carves through the heart of this high-country landscape, where the early twentieth-century economies of coal mining and cattle ranching meet. In the western reaches, the industrial nodes of Somerset and Oliver sit along the riverbanks, marking the importance of the valley floor for transportation and resource extraction. The surrounding terrain rises sharply into vast plateaus and mesas, including Coal Creek Mesa and Snowshoe Mesa, which define the region's complex topography.
