1964 Map of Snowdon Peak

About this map

The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad follows the steep canyon of the Animas River, a vital transportation corridor through the high-altitude terrain of the San Juan National Forest. Small mountain settlements like Needleton and Elk Park serve as key stops along this narrow-gauge line, with the Needleton Water Tank providing a necessary service point for steam locomotives within Watertank Canyon. To the west, the landscape is defined by the Needle Mountains, while the Grenadier Range rises to the east, anchored by prominent summits such as Mount Garfield and Snowdon Peak.
