1964 Map of Parlin

About this map

Parlin serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s landscape, situated at the confluence of Tomichi Creek and Quartz Creek. The region reflects a transition from valley floor agriculture, evidenced by several unnamed ditches and the Big Seep Reservoir, to the high-elevation mining and timber resources of the Gunnison National Forest. Transport history is clearly etched into the terrain via the Old Railroad Grade and Railroad Grade following the creek paths, alongside a network of rugged routes like the Pack Trail and Jeep Trail. Prospectors were active throughout the northern gulches, with specific operations such as the Willow Creek Mine and Brown Derby Mine marking the industrial footprint. Topographic highlights include the high elevations of Fossil Ridge and the broad Roundup Basin, illustrating the complex drainage systems of Alder Creek and Beaver Creek.
