1957 Map of Cerro Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Upper Bostwick Park and Poverty Mesa anchor this landscape, where the legacy of early 20th-century engineering is clearly visible. The map documents the Old Railroad Grade and the winding Hairpin Railroad climbing toward the high pass at Cerro Summit. Significant water infrastructure is present, including the subterranean path of the Gunnison Tunnel and its West Portal, alongside the South Canal and Montrose Reservoir. These features highlight the complex efforts to divert water through the mountains to support valley agriculture.
