1962 Map of Casa Grande

About this map

The Beaubien And Miranda (Maxwell) land grant dominates this 1960s terrain, revealing a landscape defined by ranching camps and the echoes of early industrial activity. The map traces the winding courses of the Vermejo River and Canadian River as they cut through numerous canyons such as Lorencito Canyon and Caliente Canyon. Remnants of the area's history are found at the Catskill (Site), where an Old Railroad Grade and Catskill Cem mark the location of a former settlement. Near the confluence of several canyons, the presence of Charcoal Kilns and scattered mines points to the extractive industries that once supported the local economy. Throughout the quadrangle, established outposts like W S Ranch Camp and Van Houten Camp sit alongside family-named landmarks like Butler Flats and Juan Baca Canyon, providing a detailed look at the rural occupation of Colfax County.
