1956 Map of Parkview Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The high alpine intersection of the Continental Divide and the Rabbit Ears Range defines this high-altitude landscape on the border of Grand and Jackson counties. Published in the late 1950s from earlier aerial surveys, the map showcases a terrain dominated by the timberlines of the Routt National Forest and Arapaho National Forest. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the Trails End Ranch in the southeast and a network of remote paths like the Arapaho Creek Trail and various Pack Trail segments. The hydrological pattern is complex, with the headwaters of Troublesome Creek and Willow Creek carving deep drainages away from the central peaks of Parkview Mountain and Haystack Mountain. These water sources, including Buffalo Creek and McBride Creek, underscore the importance of the watershed in this era of forest management.
