About this map

Park Headquarters serves as the focal point for this 1934 topographic study of the Colorado National Monument. Surveyed by W.S. Higginson, the map meticulously documents the transition of this arid landscape into a managed federal preserve. The intricate contour work reveals a labyrinth of geological formations, including the sheer walls of No Thoroughfare Canyon and distinct monoliths like the Independence Monument and the Kissing Couple.
