About this map

Royal Gorge and its surrounding canyons dominate this Colorado landscape during the early 1980s. The map illustrates the dramatic engineering and recreational infrastructure of the era, centered on the Royal Gorge Bridge and the supporting facilities of Royal Gorge Park. Near the gorge rim, the Miniature Railroad and various picnic areas highlight the area's development as a destination. To the southeast, the urban edge of Canon City is visible, featuring specialized utility infrastructure such as the Filtration Plant, Hydraulic Ditch, and a Gaging Sta along the river.
