1964 Map of Signal Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Tomichi Creek and its southern tributaries dominate this mid-1960s landscape, illustrating a transition between the valley floor and the high timber of the Gunnison National Forest. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade running parallel to the creek identifies the historical transport corridor that once connected these high-country settlements. Further north, the terrain rises toward Signal Peak, a prominent landmark overlooking a network of deep drainages such as Lost Canyon and Sheep Gulch. Scattered prospects and gravel pits throughout the quadrangle speak to the region's mining and mineral history, while family-named features like Biebel Springs and Sewell Gulch provide important markers for local genealogists and researchers tracing early land use in the area east of Gunnison.
