1900 Map of Engineer Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1900

About this map

Denver and Rio Grande R. R. (Silverton Line) winds through the eastern canyon along the Animas River, a critical transportation link for the San Juan mountains at the end of the nineteenth century. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the convergence of four counties—Dolores, San Juan, Montezuma, and La Plata—meeting near the expansive Hermosa Park. The mapping shows early mountain infrastructure, including the Butler Trail and the Old Tollgate, which once facilitated movement across these high passes before modern highways.
