1916 Map of Creede

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Creede and its surrounding silver mining district dominate this 1913–1914 survey, which highlights the intense industrial activity and settlement patterns in Mineral County. The map documents the high-altitude development of Bachelor and North Creede, where the complex infrastructure of the Bachelor Tunnel and Nelson Tunnel once tapped into rich mineral veins. The high-country terrain is defined by the Continental Divide and the headwaters of the Rio Grande, showing the early 20th-century landscape before modern forest management altered these basins.
