1914 Map of Creede

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Mining operations and high mountain settlements dominate this 1914 survey of the San Juan Mountains, centered on the silver boom legacies of Creede and its surrounding camps. Industrial development is evident in the cluster of names near the Continental Divide, including Bachelor, North Creede, and the Nelson Tunnel. The geography reflects a landscape in transition, where mining sites like the Emma Mine sit near early recreation and conservation landmarks such as the Wheeler National Monument.
