1895 Map of Aspen
USGS Topo · Published 1895About this map
The silver-mining capital of Aspen is captured here during its late nineteenth-century industrial peak, appearing as a dense grid of streets surrounded by the essential infrastructure of the era. The Denver and Rio Grande R. R. and the A. T. and S. F. R. R. both terminate at the town's edge, highlighting the vital rail connections that moved ore from the mountains. This 1893 survey details the intense mineral extraction defining the Roaring Fork valley, from the Holden Works processing facility to remote operations like the Molly Gibson Mine and the Park Regent Mine.
