1957 Map of Georgetown

About this map

High-altitude silver mining claims and complex tunnel networks dominate this mid-century survey of the Clear Creek valley. Georgetown and Silver Plume serve as the primary hubs for an extractive landscape crowded with historic operations, including the Terrible Mine, Pay Rock Mine, and the Seven Thirty Mine. The intricate mapping of deep-earth infrastructure is evident in the numerous labeled portals like the Burleigh Tunnel and the Queen of the West Tunnel that pierce the surrounding peaks.
