About this map

Estes Park serves as the gateway to this portion of Rocky Mountain National Park, where the high-altitude landscape is defined by massive glacial features like South Lateral Moraine and Bierstadt Moraine. The map documents a dense concentration of historical burial sites and family plots, including the Ransom S Kendall Grave and the Hupp Family Cem, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing early residents of the Front Range.

Transport and recreation intersect at Tuxedo Park, while higher elevations reveal the labor of early prospectors along the Eugenia Mine Trl. From the waters of Marys Lake to the towering peak of Mt Lady Washington, the sheet illustrates the transition from the developed valley near Beaver Point to the high-country terrain of the Boulder Field and the Chasm View Wall. The presence of the Rams Horn Tunnel further highlights the engineering efforts required to navigate this complex mountain environment.
