1994 Map of Cascade

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The Rampart Range dominates this mid-1990s landscape, illustrating the interface between the high-altitude wilderness of Pike National Forest and the expanding western edge of Colorado Springs. High-country water management is a central theme, evidenced by a network of reservoirs and infrastructure including Rampart Reservoir, Stanley Reservoir, Nichols Reservoir, and the Palmer Reservoir. This survey captures the complex land use of the era, where recreational spaces like the Farish Memorial Recreation Area (USAFA) and the Garden of the Gods sit adjacent to the highly structured grounds of the United States Air Force Academy. Small settlements such as Chipita Park and Cascade are tucked into the steep drainages along Ute Pass, while more secluded sites like Glen Eyrie are found near the rugged canyon mouths. The map serves as a record of the region's diverse geography, from the heights of Blodgett Peak to the deep recesses of the Hurricane Canyon Natural Area.
