1933 Map of Mt. Powell

USGS Topo · Published 1933

About this map

Mt Powell and the Gore Range dominate this high-altitude landscape during the early 1930s, showing a region where ranching and early mountain schools defined the community. Isolated outposts such as the Noonen Ranch, Smith Ranch, and the remote Sheephorn PO appear alongside established family homesteads like Abbott Place and Dontz Place. The survey highlights the essential infrastructure of rural education with the Upper Sheephorn Sch and Lakeside Sch situated amidst the complex drainage systems of Cataract Creek and the Blue River. The division between the Arapaho National Forest and Holy Cross National Forest underscores the era's land management, while features like Soda Springs and high-basin waters such as Eagles Mere Lakes and Tipperary Lake illustrate the primary water sources for these upland settlements.
