1956 Map of Elevenmile Canyon

About this map

The South Platte River carves through the heart of the Pike National Forest, defining the recreation and ranching landscape of the mid-1950s. While much of the terrain is dominated by the Pumpkin Hills and peaks like Stoll Mountain, the canyon floor reveals a cluster of developed sites including Riverside Campground, Cove Campground, and the Sleeping Tom Summer Homes. The presence of a Sch (Aband) near the northern edge suggests the receding footprint of earlier rural settlement as the area transitioned more fully toward seasonal use and conservation.
