1960 Map of North Mamm Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Battlement Mesa and the surrounding high-plateau country define this landscape in the early 1960s, a period when energy exploration began to mark the Garfield County wilderness. Multiple gas and oil wells are situated near the Colorado River in the northwest, while a network of pack and jeep trails provides the only access to the steep drainage systems of West Mamm Creek and Middle Mamm Creek. The map documents a significant intersection of public lands, showing the White River National Forest and Grand Mesa Nat Forest meeting near the prominent summit of North Mamm Peak. Researchers will find evidence of the region's hydrography and resource management, from the Gaging Sta on Beaver Creek to several high-altitude springs and the open meadow of Tepee Park, which offered key landmarks for early surveyors and ranchmen in this upland terrain.
