1925 Map of Pilot Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

California Park and the high peaks of the Routt National Forest define this 1920s topography, where early ranching and mining efforts shaped the landscape north of the Yampa River. The survey documents a series of rural institutions and isolated homesteads, including Gantts Cabin and the small settlement of Mystic. Local education is prominently marked by the presence of the Long Gulch School, Deep Creek School, and Wolf Creek School, serving families scattered across the drainages of Elkhead Creek and Deep Creek. Industrial history is recorded in the slopes around Pilot Knob, where the Ducey Mine and Franz Mine represent the area's mineral prospects. Along the southern edge, the tracks of the Denver and Salt Lake River follow the river valley, providing the primary connection to the wider world for these mountain communities.
