About this map

Cripple Creek and the surrounding mining district appear here at a mid-century peak of industrial legacy, characterized by a landscape dominated by extraction. The map reveals the high density of shafts, tunnels, and tailings that defined the region, with the massive Carlton Tunnel and Roosevelt Tunnel cutting deep beneath the mountainous terrain. Settlements like Victor and Goldfield are shown in detail, alongside smaller encampments and named mine sites such as the Cresson Mine and the Portland Mine.
