About this map

Signal Peak rises as a prominent landmark in this high-altitude landscape where mountain drainages converge. The map documents the intricate hydrography of the region, featuring the Gunnison River in the northwest corner and the meandering Tomichi Creek flowing eastward. These waterways are fed by numerous seasonal and perennial sources such as Biebel Springs and Cabin Creek, creating a complex network of draws and gulches including Sheep Gulch and Long Gulch.

Transportation corridors follow the natural topography, with Old Hwy 50 and Industrial Park Rd navigating the valley floor. To the southeast, the terrain becomes more defined as Cochetopa Creek carves through Cochetopa Canyon, passing near the broad elevated plateau of Flat Top. This survey provides a precise record of public lands and ranch access roads like Lost Canyon Rd and various BLM routes that define the modern use of this Colorado high country.
