1892 Map of Huerfano Park

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Huerfano River carves a central valley through this high-altitude landscape, recorded during a reconnaissance survey by A.H. Thompson and Willard D. Johnson. The terrain is defined by the massive peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the west and Greenhorn Mt to the east. Early settlements like Gardner, Malachite, and Badito are concentrated along the river valley, while the southern edge of the map shows the strategic transit corridor of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad.
