1962 Map of Sawtooth Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Gunnison National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Saguache County, where the topography is defined by the steep drainage systems of Cochetopa Creek and its many tributaries. The area's industrial history is marked by extractive operations such as the Los Ocho Mine and Mercury Mine, situated near the dramatic narrowing of Cochetopa Canyon. This 1962 survey reveals a network of land-use indicators, from Homestead Gulch to the suggestive Townsite Gulch, illustrating the era's transition between early resource settlement and modern forest management.
