1954 Map of Green Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Green Mountain rises as a central landmark within this portion of the Pike National Forest, situated along the boundary between Jefferson County and Douglas County. Surveyed in the mid-1950s, the landscape is defined by its dramatic vertical relief and a dense network of drainages, including the prominent Buffalo Creek and Redskin Creek. The presence of the Clayton College Boys Camp near the northern edge and the Dream Valley Ranch to the south suggests a mid-century period when these high-altitude parks were utilized for institutional recreation and private ranching before more intensive modern development. To the west, the basin surrounding Wellington Lake is fed by Rolling Creek and Freeman Creek, illustrating the complex water systems that drain from summits like Redskin Mountain and Buffalo Peak. The map also captures the secluded Webster Park, a pocket of relatively level terrain tucked between the steep ridges of the Colorado Front Range.
