This fine map shows the status of settlement and development three years after Colorado became a state. It details railroads, cities, towns and mining communities, watershed, forts, and more. The large Confederate Ute Indian Reservation takes up a majority of the western part of the state. Features good topographical detail in hachure. This is one of the few Mitchell atlas map years showing Colorado separately. Indian Territory on verso.
