1954 Map of Mount Deception

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Manitou Experimental Forest Headquarters serves as a central hub within this mid-century survey of the Front Range. The landscape is defined by the steep transitions of the Rampart Range, where the Rampart Range Road and Winding Stairs Road navigate the complex network of gulches and ridges. To the west, the valley of Trout Creek contains the Manitou Park Recreation Area and Manitou Park Lake, illustrating the post-war emphasis on public land management and conservation. Evidence of institutional and community life is found at the Sky High Girl Scout Camp and the Manitou Park Grange. Technical infrastructure is also noted, including the Woodland Park Filtration Plant and an Aqueduct running through the south, while landmarks like Balanced Rock and Mt Herman anchor the eastern boundary near the El Paso county line.
