1961 Map of Cascade

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Rampart Range dominates this 1961 landscape, where the rugged topography of the Colorado Front Range meets the expanding infrastructure of the mid-century. Along the southern edge of the United States Air Force Academy, the map reveals a network of water management features including several numbered reservoirs and an aqueduct that feeds toward the Filtration Plant. Residential and institutional pockets such as Chipita Park, Cascade, and Glen Eyrie are nestled in the canyons and along Fountain Creek, illustrating the early 1960s development pattern of mountain communities near Colorado Springs.
