1980 Map of Piney Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Piney Peak and the high ridges of the White River National Forest dominate this 1980s topography, showing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and high-altitude hydrology. The map captures the convergence of the Arapaho National Forest and the Eagles Nest Wilderness, where the county line between Eagle and Summit counties follows the natural spine of Elliott Ridge. This era of surveying illustrates the extensive network of pack trails used for access before modern development, connecting remote water sources like Beaver Dam Lake and Mather Spring. The drainage patterns of the Piney River and Deep Creek are meticulously charted, revealing the complex basin systems that feed the region's lakes, including Slough Grass Lake and Mahan Lake. Geologic landmarks such as Chimney Rock and Meridian Peak provide clear reference points for those studying the physical geography of the Gore Range area.
