USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
St Elmo and the surrounding mining districts of the Sawatch Range are captured here during a transition from active extraction to a quieter mountain era. The map details a landscape dominated by the silver and gold rush legacy, featuring the Aerial Tramway connecting mines near Romley and the significant operations at the Pride of the West Mine. High-altitude engineering is visible through the Old Alpine Tunnel and the passage of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad as it follows the Middle Fork South Arkansas River.
