1994 Map of Alma
USGS Topo · Published 1998About this map
Mount Lincoln, Mount Cameron, and Mount Bross dominate the western horizon of this high-elevation study, where the legacy of hard-rock mining is etched into every canyon. The landscape is a dense network of extraction, centered around the Middle Fork South Platte River and its tributaries. Significant industrial footprints are visible at the Magnolia Mill and the Buckskin Joe Mine, illustrating the intense mineral pursuit that sustained local settlements. Historical sites such as Quartzville (Site) and Dudley (Site) represent the shifting fortunes of the region's mining camps. Further down the valley, Park City remains a focal point with its Park City Cem, providing a genealogical anchor for the district. The transition from industrial extraction to preservation is evident in the inclusion of the Bristlecone Pine Scenic Area and the Alma State Wildlife Area, marking a modern chapter for these peaks.
