Title 16 › CHAPTER 1 — NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES › SUBCHAPTER XXI — ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK › § 192
Changes the park's eastern boundary in a specific area of Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. The new line starts at the corner that is the northwest corner of section 2 and northeast corner of section 3, township 3 north, range 73 west. From there it goes east along the township line to the main watershed east of Cow Creek (between section 31, T4N, and section 6, T3N, R72W). It then follows that watershed northwest over Twin Sisters, the Crags, past the west side of Lily Lake, between Aspen Brook and Fish Creek, and over Lily Mountain and Giant-track Mountain to the southeast corner of section 34 and southwest corner of section 35, township 5 north, range 73 west. The line continues north along several section lines, then east along a quarter‑section line through sections 14, 13 and 18 to the quarter corner between 18 and 17 (T5N, R72W), then north along section lines to the northeast corner of section 6 and northwest corner of section 5, and finally west along the township line to the township corner common to townships 5 and 6 north, ranges 72 and 73 west (on the park’s present eastern boundary). All land between the park’s eastern boundary as it existed on February 14, 1917, and the new line in that area is taken out of settlement, occupation, or sale under U.S. law and is added to Rocky Mountain National Park. The rules in sections 191 and 193 through 195a of this title now apply to those added lands.
