1892 Map of Huerfano Park

USGS Topo · Published 1892

About this map

Huerfano River drainage systems define this high-altitude landscape, where early Colorado settlements and mountain crossings were mapped just before the turn of the century. The terrain is marked by dramatic elevation changes, from the towering Blanca Peak in the southwest to the sprawling Huerfano Canyon in the east. Small mountain communities like Gardner and Malachite serve as central points within the park, connected by primitive trails and the high-altitude infrastructure of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad carving through Veta Pass.
