1958 Map of Topaz Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The high peaks of the Kenosha Mountains and Tarryall Mountains dominate this 1958 survey of Park County, revealing a landscape defined by seasonal industry and wilderness travel. At the heart of the quadrangle, the Northup Lumber Camp and Lost Park Cow Camp serve as evidence of the timber and ranching operations that utilized the Pike National Forest. High-elevation landmarks like North Tarryall Peak and Topaz Mountain overlook a complex drainage system where the North Fork South Platte River and Lost Park Creek carve through numerous gulches. The presence of the Hourglass Burn indicates the natural history of fire in these woods, while the network of primitive routes, including the Hooper Trail and Lost Park Road, shows how hunters and foresters navigated this high-altitude terrain in the late 1950s.
