About this map

Silverton serves as the focal point of this high-altitude landscape, situated at the confluence of the Animas River and Cement Cr. The town's historic layout is clearly visible, including streets like Blair St and Cement St, as well as the San Juan County Courthouse. High above the valley floor, the terrain is defined by massive peaks and glacial features such as Sultan Mtn, Kendall Mtn, and the distinctive Grand Turk.

This 2022 survey captures the extensive trail and road network that historically supported the region's mining industry, including the Ophir Pass Branch and numerous routes like the Silverton To Gladstone (Approximate) Trl. From the Hillside Cem overlooking the town to the remote waters of Blair Lake, the map documents a place where human settlement is deeply intertwined with the geography of the San Juan National Forest.
