About this map

Philmont Scout Ranch occupies a significant portion of this terrain in Colfax County, showing the specialized land use for youth scouting programs in the late 20th century. The map details several remote outposts including Dan Beard Camp, Old Camp, and Bent Camp, which serve as waypoints within the expansive backcountry. This area is defined by its canyon systems and mesa tops, where the Beaubien and Miranda Grant (Maxwell) historical boundary meets the Carson National Forest. The drainage network is anchored by Abreu Canyon and Ponil Creek, illustrating a landscape carved by seasonal water flow. Conservation and management zones are prominent, with the Elliot Barker State Wildlife Area and Wilson Mesa providing a buffer of protected wilderness adjacent to the scout ranch, connected by primitive routes like the Beatty Lakes Trail.
