1961 Map of Oh-Be-Joyful

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

White River National Forest and Gunnison National Forest meet in this high-altitude landscape, where the legacy of early Colorado mining is etched into the terrain. The settlement of Pittsburg sits near the confluence of Slate River and Poverty Gulch, serving as a central point for numerous mineral operations including the Pittsburg Mine and Augusta Mine. The map reveals a transition from industrial activity to alpine wilderness, with an Old Railroad Grade following the river toward the Gothic Picnic Ground and the peaks of the Ruby Range.
