About this map

West Elk Peak dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Gunnison National Forest, a terrain defined by steep drainage basins and prominent summits. This 1965 field-checked survey captures the intricate topography of the West Elk Wilderness, where elevations are marked by a series of peaks including North Baldy Mtn, Middle Baldy Mountain, and South Baldy Mountain. The presence of numerous pack trails winding through West Elk Basin and across Storm Pass illustrates the reliance on traditional routes for navigating this protected backcountry.
