1962 Map of Tumble Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Little Snake River carves a path through northern Routt County, defining the drainage of this highland territory mapped in the early 1960s. The landscape is characterized by prominent peaks including West Gibraltar Peak, East Gibraltar Peak, and the namesake Tumble Mountain, while lower-lying areas like Maria Bottoms provided rare flat ground for settlement. Ranching activity is evident at the Focus Ranch near a Gaging Sta on the river and at A Diamond J Ranch to the east. A complex network of Jeep Trails and Trails suggests a rugged interior dependent on seasonal access for livestock or resource management. Water sources like Willow Creek, Beaver Creek, and Gold Blossom Creek feed into the river system, while landmarks such as Gold Blossom Rocks and Circle Ridge provide distinct navigational points in the southern reaches near South Fork Park.
