About this map

Leadville anchors the northeastern corner of this survey, where the mining legacy of Carbonate Hill and Rock Hill meets the early industrial rail network. The Denver and Rio Grande Western RR follows the Arkansas River corridor, serving small siding settlements like Snowden, Kobe, and Malta. This area was a critical nexus for both resource extraction and high-altitude conservation, evidenced by the U S Fish Hatchery and the U S Fish Nursery near the riverbanks.
