1967 Map of Mount Elbert

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The high alpine landscape of central Colorado is captured in this 1967 field-checked study, dominated by the massif of Mount Elbert and the surrounding peaks of the San Isabel National Forest. The map documents a rugged extractive history, with numerous mining sites such as the Iron Mike Mine and Golden Fleece Mine scattered across the high ridges and gulches. The drainage systems of Lake Creek and South Half Moon Creek define the topography, feeding into the prominent Twin Lakes Reservoir.
