1956 Map of Hyannis Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this mid-century high-country survey, marking the jagged boundary between Routt National Forest and Arapaho National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the Rabbit Ears Range, with Hyannis Peak and Sheep Mtn anchoring the northern terrain. Unlike the more developed valley floors, this area's economy in the 1950s was tied to remote outposts and natural resources, evidenced by the Hendricks Ranch near the Matheson Reservoir and scattered Mines near the base of Coal Mountain. The intricate drainage system, including Troublesome Creek and Arapaho Creek, flows from these peaks, while primitive access is provided by the Arapaho Creek Trail and Siebert Trail. The map also documents the political geography of the era, following the Jackson and Grand County line as it crests the mountain ridges.
