1962 Map of Panorama Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Estes Park and its surrounding high-country landscape are captured here in a period of mid-century development and recreation. The eastern edge of the village transitions quickly into the Roosevelt National Forest, where the topography is defined by prominent summits like Mount Olympus and Mount Pisgah. The Big Thompson River flows from Lake Estes, carved into the terrain alongside the residential and resort areas of Stanley Park. To the south, the map reveals a network of high mountain parks and meadows, including Hermit Park and Pierson Park, which served as historical grazing and ranching grounds. Notable features include Meadowdale Ranch and the cluster of alpine lakes at Big Elk Meadows, such as Mirror Lake and Rainbow Lake. The presence of a Gravel Pit near Park Hill and several Jeep Trails indicates the ongoing utilitarian and recreational use of these mountains as the region became a primary gateway for Colorado tourism.
