1894 Map of Anthracite

USGS Topo · Published 1894

About this map

Mining settlements and high-altitude basins dominate this 1894 landscape, where the rugged peaks of the West Elk Range meet the industrial aspirations of the late nineteenth century. Irwin and Ruby sit as significant nodes of activity near Lake Brennan, while the Mt Carbon P.O. and Baldwin anchor the southern reaches near the terminus of the Denver South Park and Pacific Railroad. The map reveals an intricate network of drainage systems and summits, from the Slate River in the east to the Slopes of Ragged Mountain in the northwest.
