USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Pikes Peak dominates this topographic survey, capturing the infrastructure and high-altitude landscape of the summit and its surrounding wilderness in the early 1950s. The Cog Railway, labeled here as the Manitou and Pikes Peak, climbs toward the Summit House and Windy Point, tracing a route past historical landmarks like Sachett Mountain. The map details a sophisticated water management system crucial to the region, including the Strickler Tunnel, Bison Reservoir, and a series of high-altitude basins numbered one through eight.
