1957 Map of Mc Henrys Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Rocky Mountain National Park dominates this mid-century topographic survey, centered on the high peaks and glaciers of the Continental Divide. The map documents the intricate hydrology and glacial systems of the era, featuring prominent ice bodies like Tyndall Glacier and Andrews Glacier. Higher elevations reveal a landscape defined by sharp summits such as McHenrys Peak and Hallett Peak, alongside the high-altitude Bighorn Flats. Human infrastructure is sparse but critical for wilderness management, including a Ranger Station near Bear Lake and a Patrol Cabin situated along the drainage of Spruce Creek. Historic access routes are clearly delineated, from the high-reaching Trail Ridge Road to the established Ute Trail. The source also marks the headwaters of the Big Thompson River, illustrating the watershed's complex network of tarns and falls like Fern Falls and Marguerite Falls.
