1919 Map of Rocky Mountain National Park

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Estes Park and the high alpine terrain of the Continental Divide anchor this extensive survey, which documents the early road and trail network of the Rocky Mountain National Park during its first decades. The mapping shows the early footprint of tourism and settlement before the expansion of the modern highway system, including the original Fall River Road and the Ute Trail. Local life is visible in the presence of the Sleepy Hollow School and the Monarch PO near Grand Lake, while the industrial past of the High Country is represented by the Fourth of July Mines and Sawmill Meadow. The transition from the rugged Mummy Range to the valley settlements like Granby and Allenspark illustrates the remote character of North-Central Colorado in the years following the park's establishment.
