1961 Map of Medicine Bow Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Medicine Bow Peak serves as the focal point of this high-altitude landscape, where the Snowy Range drops into the expansive Libby Flats. This 1961 field-checked survey illustrates the transition from the glaciated peaks and numerous alpine tarns—including Lake Marie, Mirror Lake, and Lookout Lake—to the lower forested reaches of the Medicine Bow National Forest. The presence of Snowy Range Pass and established sites like Lewis Lake Campground and Silver Lake Campground highlights the area's development as a post-war recreational destination.
