1954 Map of Signal Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The high timberlands of the Pike National Forest dominate this mid-century topographic survey, revealing a landscape defined by ranching outposts and a complex network of mountain waterways. Large cattle and guest ranch operations like Turkey Rock Ranch, Lost Valley Ranch, and Rideout Ranch are scattered throughout the drainages, while the Old Phantom Creek Ranger Station marks a point of early administrative history. The terrain is dramatically broken by features such as Turkey Rock and the high point at Signal Butte, with numerous beaver ponds indicated along the upper reaches of Manchester Creek and the North Fork. This survey documents the area before significant modern development, showing only primitive trails and the Transfer Road providing access through the steep gulches and divides of Teller County.
