1994 Map of Maysville

About this map

San Isabel National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Chaffee Co, where the dramatic slopes of Mount Shavano rise above the South Arkansas River valley. The small settlement of Maysville sits along the river corridor, supported by water management infrastructure including the Aqueduct and Hoosier Ditch. This 1994 survey reflects a late 20th-century mix of recreation and resource management, with the Colorado Trail winding through the timber and numerous prospects and mines scattered across the mountain flanks. Notable features like the Angel of Shavano and Shavano Lake sit at the higher elevations, while lower areas like Missouri Park show the irrigation networks essential to the region's geography. A local Cem and a Mobile Home Park provide points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of this mountain community.
