1963 Map of Poison Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Cow Creek Mesa dominates this high-country landscape in Gunnison County, where a network of deeply incised drainages like Poison Draw and Cardwell Draw carve through the terrain. The map captures a transition in land use, showing a primitive Landing Strip and various Jeep Trails that provide access to this isolated area. Water is the primary driver of the map's geography, with the Gunnison River appearing in the southeast corner while numerous named springs, such as Addington Springs and Armitage Springs, serve as critical landmarks for local land management. The drainage pattern is complex, featuring the Little Blue Creek and several forks of Willow Creek, including Dry Willow Creek. A network of fine dashed lines denotes local fence lines, indicating the area's history of ranching and livestock grazing.
