1937 Map of Como

About this map

Como serves as a focal point for the mountain landscape of Park County, where the high-altitude rail lines of the Colorado and Southern dominate the local economy. The network connects several small settlements, including Jefferson, Boreas, and the now-vanished Belmont, as it navigates the demanding grades of the Front Range. The survey highlights the significant industrial presence of the Ute Mine and numerous prospects along French Gulch and American Gulch, reflecting a legacy of mineral extraction that shaped these communities. High mountain crossings such as Boreas Pass and Kenosha Pass define the transport routes between the drainage basins of Tarryall Creek and the North Fork South Platte River. Prominent peaks like Mt Guyot and Boreas Mountain tower over the gulches, illustrating the complex relationship between mining topography and the winding paths of Colorado State Highway No 8.
