1893 Map of Platte Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1898

About this map

The Denver South Park and Pacific RR winds through the high canyons of this 1891 survey, following the sharp curves of the North Fork of the South Platte river. This narrow-gauge rail line served as the primary lifeline for a string of mountain settlements including Bailey, Estabrook, and Pine Grove. The geography is defined by a dense network of granite summits and prominent landmarks such as Devils Head or Platte Mtn, Thunder Butte, and the Tarryall Mts.
