1905 Map of Georgetown

About this map

Georgetown and Silver Plume serve as the primary hubs in this high-altitude survey, connected by the famous engineering of the Georgetown Loop and the Colorado and Southern railroad. The landscape is dominated by the massive presence of Mt Evans, surrounded by glacial features such as the Chicago Lakes, Summit Lake, and Naylor Lake. Smaller mining settlements like Freeland and Lamartine are scattered across the slopes of Alps Mtn and Saxon Mtn, linked by high-elevation trails and a tramway in Devils Canyon.
