1956 Map of Walton Peak

About this map

Walton Peak serves as a prominent landmark on this mid-century survey, sitting at an elevation over 10,500 feet along the high ridges of the Gore Range. The map documents a landscape defined by the intersection of the Routt National Forest and the Arapaho National Forest, with the Routt and Grand County line cutting across the eastern slopes. This high-country terrain is characterized by a dense network of water sources, including numerous Beaver Ponds and the headwaters of Muddy Creek, Green Creek, and Service Creek. Transportation in this era was limited to fundamental foot and pack routes, including the Buffalo Park Trail and the Service Creek Trail, which provided access to these remote watersheds before modern road development expanded into the backcountry.
