1956 Map of Parkview Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Continental Divide crests through this high-altitude landscape where the Rabbit Ears Range meets the headwaters of the Colorado River basin. Surveyed in the mid-1950s, the map document's the remote boundary between Routt National Forest and Arapaho National Forest. The presence of the Lookout House atop Parkview Mountain and the scattered Beaver Ponds along Troublesome Creek underscore the area's use for resource management and wildlife habitat. Human presence is concentrated at the Trails End Ranch in the southeast, while the rest of the terrain is defined by a network of pack routes, including the Arapaho Creek Trail and Haystack Trail. These paths follow the natural corridors of McBride Creek and Paradise Creek, providing access through the steep drainages of Poison Ridge and Sheep Mountain.
