1962 Map of Colorado National Monument

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Colorado National Monument dominates this 1962 landscape, showing the transition from the high desert plateaus of Glade Park down to the fertile river valley. The map documents the intricate network of canyons and spires, including Independence Monument, Coke Ovens, and the Kissing Couple, while also tracing the human infrastructure that skirts these geological giants. Along the northern edge, the Colorado River flows parallel to the Denver And Rio Grande Western Railroad, which served as the primary industrial corridor for the region.
