1956 Map of Mount Werner

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Mount Werner rises as a central landmark within this mid-century survey of the Park Range, where the High Rockies' hydrology is meticulously documented. The landscape is defined by the Continental Divide, which separates the headwaters of Fishhook Creek and Walton Creek as they descend toward the west from the eastern drainage of Muddy Creek. The map records a transition in alpine land use, from the primitive Wyoming Trail and Fish Creek Falls Trail to emerging recreational infrastructure like the Base Campground and Fish Creek Reservoir. This era captures the wilderness before the full expansion of the local ski industry, showcasing the complex network of high-altitude lakes such as Long Lake, Lake Percy, and Dumont Lake. The intersection of Routt, Jackson, and Grand counties near the Gore Range underscores the administrative boundaries that carve through this high-country terrain.
