1955 Map of Mount Harvard

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Mt Harvard and the surrounding Collegiate Peaks dominate this mid-century survey of the Continental Divide between Gunnison and San Isabel National Forests. In the north, the clearwater drainage of North Fork Clear Creek connects the mining-era settlements of Winfield and Vicksburg, while Tincup and Abbeyville sit in the southwestern quadrant. The map records several high-altitude extraction sites, such as the Silver King Mine near Missouri Basin and the Magdalene Mine in Magdalene Gulch. This era shows a landscape transitioning toward recreation, noted by the presence of the Collegiate Peaks Campground and Hughes Meadow Campground alongside older infrastructure like Halfway Station and Little Johns Cabin. Extensive trails, including the Frenchman Trail, weave through the drainage basins of Pine Creek and North Cottonwood Creek.
