1962 Map of Storm King Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Colorado River carves through this dramatic landscape, accompanied by the critical transit corridor of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. The topography is dominated by the massive Grand Hogback and Storm King Mountain, creating a natural bottleneck for early transportation and communication lines. Near the confluence of Canyon Creek and the river, the presence of the Canyon Creek Sch and Okanela Lodge indicates a localized cluster of settlement and early mountain recreation. Rural industry and water management are evident at Porter Reservoir and a designated Mine, while the northern reaches of the map show an extensive Stock Driveway following the drainages of Canyon Creek and Bearwallow Creek, reflecting the importance of livestock movement in the high country.
