About this map

Manitou Experimental Forest Headquarters serves as a focal point for land management and research within the Pike National Forest during the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by the steep ridges of the Rampart Range and significant peaks such as Mount Deception and Soldier Mountain. Local life and community infrastructure are visible through features like the Manitou Park Grange, the Sky High Girl Scout Camp, and the Worden Ranch. Water management is a critical theme of this era, illustrated by the Manitou Park Lake, the Woodland Park Filtration Plant, and an extensive aqueduct system. The area's shift toward organized outdoor leisure is also evident in the development of the Manitou Park Recreation Area and the Springdale Campground, connected by a network of winding roads like Hotel Road and Winding Stairs Road.
