1951 Map of Pikes Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Pikes Peak Cog Railway dominates the high-altitude landscape of Teller County, winding its way toward the Summit House at the peak's crest. This 1951 survey, with 1980s updates, reveals a complex network of water management essential to the region, including the Strickler Tunnel and a series of numbered reservoirs such as Reservoir No 8 and Reservoir No 2. Near the western edge, the settlement of Gillett sits in the valley above the West Fork Beaver Creek, providing a glimpse into the high-country communities established in the shadow of the mountains.
