1967 Map of Mount Massive

About this map

The Leadville National Fish Hatchery stands as a prominent feature of this high-altitude landscape in the late 1960s, situated near the headwaters of Rock Creek. This area of the San Isabel National Forest and White River National Forest is defined by its complex alpine hydrology and engineering history. Infrastructure such as the Carlton Tunnel and Siwatch Tunnel pierce the mountain ranges, while the Old RR Grade reflects early transportation attempts through the Sawatch Range. Recreation and early industry intersect here, with the Halfmoon Campground providing access to the towering slopes of Mount Massive. To the north, the terrain rises toward Bald Eagle Mountain, overlooking a network of high-country water bodies including Windsor Lake and the Hidden Lakes. Evidence of mineral exploration persists through several prospects and the Prospect Mine located near Halfmoon Creek.
