1994 Map of Pahlone Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Continental Divide winds across this high-altitude landscape of the Central Rockies, marking the boundary between the Gunnison National Forest and San Isabel National Forest. The map documents a rugged extraction and transit corridor centered on Monarch Pass and Old Monarch Pass. Evidence of industrial history is concentrated near Lime Ridge, where the Pinnacle Mine and an extensive strip mine are situated alongside numerous prospects. This intersection of mining and recreation is further illustrated by the presence of an Aerial Tram near a communication tower on Monarch Ridge. Recreational landmarks like the Colorado Trail traverse the steep terrain, passing near Pahlone Peak and Mount Peck. The hydrology is defined by steep drainages including Agate Creek and Porphyry Creek, which carve through the dense network of peaks and ridges in Chaffee, Gunnison, and Saguache counties.
