1906 Map of Blackhawk

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Blackhawk and the surrounding Front Range canyons define this 1904 survey, which reveals the dense network of ranches and mining camps established during Colorado's early mountain development. The map follows the steep transition from the foothills at Ralston Buttes into the high country, where the Colorado and Southern railroad serves the industrial heart of the district. The landscape is dotted with early mountain settlements and family-named landmarks like Pactolus, Rollinsville, and Magnolia, while isolated structures such as the Pine Glade School mark the community centers for remote ranching families.
