1960 Map of Redstone

About this map

Redstone sits at the heart of the Crystal River valley, a community shaped by industrial roots and the surrounding White River National Forest. The 1960 survey details the settlement's infrastructure, including the Coke Ovens and a local Cem, alongside the thermal waters of Penny Hot Springs. The landscape is a network of water and early transit, defined by Avalanche Creek and Bulldog Creek feeding into the main river channel. High-altitude access is documented through numerous routes like the Hawk Pack Trail and various Jeep Trails that lead toward the Elk Mountains. Evidence of the area's extraction history is visible in the scattered Mines and a single Mine found in the higher elevations. Recreation sites such as Janeway Campground and Osgood Campground indicate the mid-century transition toward a tourism and forest-management economy.
