1982 Map of Cumberland Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

High-altitude mining and rail history converge along the Continental Divide in this 1982 survey of the Colorado Rockies. The landscape is defined by its industrial past, notably at the Alpine Tunnel and Alpine Station, where the narrow-gauge railway once crossed under the divide. Evidence of the late 19th-century silver and gold boom is etched across the peaks, from the New Gold Cup Mine on Duncan Hill to the Bon Ton Mine near Cumberland Pass.
