1960 Map of Redstone

About this map

The Crystal River valley serves as the central corridor for this 1960s study, where the village of Redstone stands as a notable historical hub within the White River National Forest. Industrial heritage is evident along the riverbanks, specifically at the Coke Ovens, which hint at the region's mining and processing history alongside scattered Mines and a Mine site in the high country. The terrain transitions sharply from the river valley to the heights of the Elk Mountains, marked by numerous drainage systems like Avalanche Creek and Hell Roaring Creek. Recreational and social points of interest are well-documented, including the Penny Hot Springs, a small Cem, and several campgrounds such as Osgood Campground and Janeway Campground. The presence of a Gaging Station and various Jeep Trails and Pack Trails reflects the active management and accessibility of this mountain landscape.
