About this map

Sherman sits at the convergence of mountain drainages in this high-altitude survey of the San Juan Mountains, revised at the turn of the 21st century. The settlement serves as a focal point near the Lake Fork Gunnison River, where the Shelf Road provides passage through the steep terrain of the Gunnison National Forest. The landscape is dominated by massive peaks, including Redcloud Peak, Sunshine Peak, and Whitecross Mountain, with several prospect locations indicating the area's mining history. Significant alpine water features such as Burrows Lake and Cooper Lake are fed by numerous steep gulches like Cataract Gulch and Grizzly Gulch. This map details the complex drainage network that defines the region, from the Henson Creek headwaters to the South Fork and East Fork tributaries that carve through the high basins.
