1962 Map of West Baldy

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Gunnison National Forest and Rio Grande National Forest converge in this high-elevation mountain terrain, where the peaks of West Baldy and Middle Baldy overlook the headwaters of the Continental Divide. The landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainage and steep ridges, including Big Hill and the prominent Needle Rock near Needle Creek Reservoir. This 1962 field-checked survey reveals the human imprint on these peaks through remote landmarks such as the Hughes Mine Grave and isolated structures like Shortys Cabin.
