1957 Map of Bottle Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Arapaho National Forest dominates this mid-century alpine landscape, characterized by high-elevation peaks and an intricate network of mountain drainages. The 1957 survey highlights specialized forest management and water engineering, notably the Fraser Experimental Sta and the presence of a Siphon and Aqueduct system near the eastern boundary. The terrain is punctuated by significant summits like Ptarmigan Peak and Byers Peak, while Bottle Pass provides a transition between these rugged ridges. The map captures the early recreational footprint of the area, showing established routes like the Horseshoe and Idlewild Trail and the Byers Creek Campground. Settlement is sparse, with infrastructure focused on the management of natural resources, including the Big Six Ditch and a Gaging Sta along the upper creeks.
