About this map

Tasmania Mine and the Last Dollar Mine stand as prominent markers of the high-altitude industrial heritage found along the Clear Creek corridor. This 2011 survey documents the complex mining geography of the Sawatch Range, where settlements like Winfield, Vicksburg, and Rockdale grew along the canyon floors to support deep-mountain extraction. The landscape is defined by the steep drainages of Lulu Gulch and Missouri Gulch, which feed into the primary waterways of North Fork Clear Creek and Lake Fork.

Beyond the mining claims, the topography is anchored by massive peaks including Huron Peak, Missouri Mountain, and the striking formation known as The Three Apostles. Smaller camps like Hamilton and expansive features such as Harrison Flat suggest the varied use of these alpine basins. High-elevation water bodies like Lake Ann and Clohesy Lake illustrate the glacial character of the terrain, providing a detailed view of the region's hydrological and geological structure.
