1956 Map of Rabbit Ears Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Rabbit Ears Peak serves as the dominant landmark of this mid-century survey, standing at the northern terminus of the Rabbit Ears Range. The map documents a high-altitude landscape defined by the Continental Divide, where the boundary between Jackson and Grand counties follows the crest. Human presence is sparse, represented by seasonal or industrial sites like the McGowan Homestead and a Lumber Camp near Cloverleaf Valley. Water management in this high country is evidenced by the Bear Park Reservoir and McGowan Reservoir, while the drainage system of Colorado Creek and Grizzly Creek reflects the complex hydrology of the Missouri River Basin headwaters.
