1950 Map of Manitou

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Manitou and the western edge of Colorado Springs serve as the gateways to a landscape defined by extreme verticality and early tourism infrastructure. The map documents the intricate transportation networks required to navigate the Rampart Range, from the steep Inclined Railway to the winding course of the Manitou and Pikes Peak Ry. Higher elevations reveal small mountain enclaves like Ruxton Park, Minnehaha, and Artists Glen, connected by the Barr Trail as it ascends toward the peak beyond the western margin.
