This map may be related to the Monk/Gilpin Colorado of 1865 (see Ellis p. 76, and see our #3509) - Colton republished the Monk/Gilpin in 1866 and that was very likely the base for this map. This is one of the most attractive of the early Colorado maps - Ellis calls it "a very good map and on a large scale." The hachuring used to indicate mountains and drainage is unusual and visually distinctive.
