About this map

Cripple Creek anchors the southern margin of this 1951 topographic survey, showcasing the complex high-altitude terrain that defined one of Colorado's most famous gold mining districts. The map documents the industrial and civic footprint of the era, including the Mollie Kathleen Mine and the County Hospital situated near the town site. The landscape is dominated by volcanic peaks such as Rhyolite Mountain, Copper Mountain, and Mt Pisgah, which rise above the gulches that fueled the region's late 19th-century boom.
