1961 Map of Spruce Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Spruce Mountain and Oil Well Mountain dominate this high-altitude landscape where the boundaries of the Grand Mesa National Forest, White River National Forest, and Gunnison National Forest converge. The topography is defined by a dense network of drainages, including Muddy Creek, Buzzard Creek, and Crane Creek, which carve through the plateau. Evidence of resource exploration is present at Oil Well and a documented Drill Hole near Cox Spring, reflecting the mid-century industrial interest in these remote reaches of the Western Slope.
