1954 Map of Mount Deception

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Manitou Experimental Forest anchors this mid-century survey of the terrain north of Woodland Park, where federal research and civic landmarks meet the high peaks of the Rampart Range. Centered on the 9,363-foot peak of Mount Deception, the landscape is defined by a dense network of gulches—including Hotel Gulch, Johns Gulch, and Missouri Gulch—that drain the eastern slopes toward Trout Creek. Local community life is evidenced by the Manitou Park Grange and the Sky High Girl Scout Camp, while the Woodland Park Filtration Plant and the Lovely Aqueduct illustrate the critical infrastructure managing water for the surrounding area. The presence of the Woodland Park Ranger Station and Warden Ranch reflects the region's dual history of forestry management and early ranching, all contained within the larger Pike National Forest.
