1963 Map of Quaker Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Quaker Mesa dominates this high-altitude landscape along the boundaries of Mesa, Garfield, Pitkin, and Gunnison counties. In the early 1960s, the area remained largely inaccessible, defined by a complex network of drainages such as West Divide Creek and Thompson Creek that cut through the White River National Forest. The presence of a Pipeline and several identified Gas Wells and Drill Holes indicates active energy exploration during this period, even in these high reaches. Local landmarks like Haystack Mountain and Twin Peaks serve as significant orientation points for the Jeep Trails and the Clear Creek Pack Trail that provided the only passage through Miner Basin and across the Indefinite Boundary.
