The Elk Mountains form a dramatic backdrop for this 1960 survey of high-elevation Pitkin County terrain. At the heart of the White River National Forest lies the sharp spire of Capitol Peak, flanked by Mount Daly and Clark Peak. This landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology, where alpine waters collect in the Pierre Lakes and Capitol Lake before feeding the drainage of Capitol Creek.
