1957 Map of Byers Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Byers Peak and the high ridges of the Continental Divide define this 1957 survey of the Arapaho National Forest. The map documents a high-altitude landscape of glacial cirques and alpine lakes, including St Louis Lake, McQueary Lake, and Horseshoe Lake. Resource extraction and water management are evident through the presence of the Bobtail Mine and a high-elevation aqueduct and tunnel system near Jones Pass, which straddles the boundary between Grand and Clear Creek counties.
