1964 Map of Sargents

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Sargents sits at the junction of several high-altitude drainages within the Gunnison National Forest, serving as a focal point for transportation and early ranching along the Tomichi Creek corridor. The landscape is defined by the legacy of mountain transit, particularly the Marshall Pass Railroad Grade and another Old Railroad Grade that snake along the valley floor near Steepy Mountain. These routes trace the historical path of the Denver & Rio Grande Western through the Rockies, crossing the Gunnison and Saguache county line. Local landmarks like Waunita Park, Black Sage Pass, and Quakey Mountain provide a glimpse into the naming conventions of early settlers and ranchers. High-country water sources such as Agate Creek and Spring Creek feed into the main valley, where a Gaging Station and a lone Grave reflect the intersection of government land management and personal history in this high-desert mountain terrain.
