1951 Map of Cripple Creek North

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Cripple Creek and the surrounding mining district are captured here in the early 1950s, a period when the gold-rush intensity of the prior century had shifted toward modernization and early recreation. The landscape is defined by the high-elevation terrain of Mineral Hill, Carbonate Hill, and Copper Mountain, where industrial scars and mining operations like the Mollie Kathleen Mine sit alongside civic necessities like the County Hospital. The map reveals a community in transition, balancing its deep-rooted extractive history with newer developments such as the Tenderfoot Ski Area near Hoosier Pass.
