Aerial view of Gilman, Colorado, in the 1950s, looking down Rock Creek. The nose of the point was locally known as "Rocky Point," and for many years was the town dump. Rocky Point aims at Fall Creek, giving an idea of the terrain between Belden, in the Eagle River Valley below, and Lake Constantine..

Battle Mountain as seen from Gilman. The numerous streaks near the mid point of the mountain mark mine openings above Belden. These represented small mining claims from the late 1800's. The photo is oriented east toward Red Cliff with Windy Point in the top center. U.S. Highway 24 is toward the top of Battle Mountain.

Notch Mountain is visible at the upper left.
