Title 16 › Chapter 1— NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES › Subchapter XXI— ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK › § 192
The eastern border of Rocky Mountain National Park is moved between two marked corner points. The new line starts at the corner common to sections 2 and 3, township 3 north, range 73 west. It goes east along the township line to the main watershed east of Cow Creek, then follows that watershed northwest over Twin Sisters, the Crags, past Lily Lake, between Aspen Brook and Fish Creek, over Lily Mountain and Giant-track Mountain to the corner common to sections 34 and 35 in township 5 north, range 73 west. From there it runs north along section lines through several sections, then east along a quarter‑section line through sections 14, 13, and 18 to the quarter corner between sections 18 and 17 in township 5 north, range 72 west. It then goes north along section lines to the northeast corner of section 6 in that township and range, and finally west along the township line to the township corner common to townships 5 and 6 north, ranges 72 and 73 west, which lies on the park’s present eastern boundary. All land between the park’s old eastern boundary as it existed on February 14, 1917, and this new boundary — between the two corner points described above — is set aside. Those lands cannot be settled, occupied, or disposed of under U.S. law and are added to Rocky Mountain National Park. The rules in sections 191 and 193 through 195a of this title apply to the lands that are added.
