1901 Map of Pikes Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

Cripple Creek serves as the industrial and social heart of this 1890s survey, surrounded by a dense network of mining towns including Victor, Goldfield, and Elkton. The geography reflects the height of the Colorado gold rush, with the Colorado Midland Railroad snaking through the northern peaks from Lake George to Divide, providing essential transit for the region's mineral wealth. To the south, the landscape transitions from the busy mining districts into the expansive grazing lands of Eightmile Park and Shaws Park. Notable landmarks like the Fossil Beds near Florissant and the high summit of Pikes Peak anchor the diverse terrain. The intricate labeling of smaller settlements such as Marigold, Wilbur, and Adelaide highlights the transient but significant communities that formed during this period of intensive mountain development.
