1937 Map of Como

About this map

Como serves as a focal point in this high-altitude landscape, situated where the Colorado And Southern railroad once navigated the difficult terrain of the Front Range. The map illustrates a region transitioning from its peak mining era, evidenced by industrial landmarks like the Wire Patch Mill near Lincoln and the Ute Mine tucked into the gulches. High mountain passes including Boreas Pass and Kenosha Pass dictate the flow of travel between the drainage basins of the Swan River and the North Fork South Platte River.
