1957 Map of Mount Richthofen

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Never Summer Mountains form a dramatic spine through this high-altitude landscape, where the Continental Divide serves as the boundary between Jackson and Grand Counties. Recorded in the late 1950s with updates from the 1970s, the map reveals a rugged wilderness defined by peak after peak, including Mount Richthofen, Mount Cirrus, and Mount Nimbus. This area is a critical watershed, with the Michigan River and Illinois River rising from the snowmelt of alpine basins like those holding Lake of the Clouds and Parika Lake.
