About this map

Cripple Creek and Victor define this landscape of intensive high-altitude gold mining in the early 1950s. The terrain is densely marked by the industrial infrastructure of the Cripple Creek mining district, featuring a concentration of shafts and workings such as the Golden Cycle Mine, Portland Mine, and Cresson Mine. Significant engineering feats are visible in the paths of the Carlton Tunnel and Roosevelt Tunnel, which were essential for drainage and access within the district.
