1955 Map of Davis Peak

About this map

Continental Divide serpentines through this high-altitude landscape of the Sierra Madre Park Range during the mid-1950s. The area is defined by massive peaks including Davis Peak and Buck Mtn, set within the protected boundaries of the Routt National Forest. A network of historic transportation routes for both livestock and recreation is visible, featuring the Stock Driveway and the Stump Park Trail. Water sources are abundant in this alpine environment, from the headwaters of the Encampment River to high-elevation basins like Seven Lakes and Lake Eileen. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns for Damfino Creek and Big Creek, illustrating how the seasonal snowmelt feeds these waterways across the Jackson and Routt county line.
