1898 Map of Engineer Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Engineer Mountain and the high ridges of the San Juan National Forest dominate this landscape, surveyed just before the turn of the century. The map highlights the early infrastructure of the San Juan Mountains, including the Denver and Rio Grande (Silverton Line) as it follows the Animas River corridor. Industrial development is evident at the southern edge of the sheet, where Tacoma and its Power Houses utilize the waters of Electra Lake for energy production.
