1901 Map of Pikes Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1932

About this map

Cripple Creek sits at the heart of this gold mining district, surrounded by a dense cluster of supporting industrial settlements that defined the region’s boom years. The landscape is a network of mining towns including Victor, Goldfield, Anaconda, and Altman, each situated along the complex topography of Globe Hill and Big Bull Mt.. Transportation is dominated by the Colorado Midland Railroad to the north and the Florence and Cripple Creek R. R. winding through the canyons to the south, highlighting how central rail access was to the district's survival. To the northwest, the map captures the transition from industrial centers to the preserved natural history of the Fossil Beds near Florissant. From the high peaks of the Pike National Forest to the open flats of Eightmile Park, the survey documents a region where massive mineral wealth rapidly reshaped the mountainous terrain of Teller County.
