1892 Map of Canon City

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Canon City serves as the industrial and transit hub of this 1889 survey, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad meets the Arkansas River. The landscape is defined by the dramatic descent of the Grand Canon of the Arkansas through the Royal Gorge, giving way to the high-altitude mining districts of the Wet Mountains. To the south, the Wet Mountain Valley supports the mining settlements of Silver Cliff and Westcliffe.
