1957 Map of Meridian Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Arapaho National Forest and Pike National Forest meet in this mid-century survey of the high country west of Denver. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage basins of Buffalo Creek and Elk Creek, where early recreation and conservation efforts are evident in the placement of the State Game and Fish Reserve and the Elk Management Headquarters. Settlement patterns at this time lean heavily toward ranching and seasonal retreats, with operations like the Singing River Ranch, Broce Ranch, and Elk Falls Ranch scattered along the lower creek beds.
