USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Cheyenne Mountain dominates the western skyline of this mid-century survey, casting its shadow over the expansion of Camp Carson. The landscape reveals a fascinating transition from the wild terrain of the Pike National Forest to the organized infrastructure of the Camp Carson Military Reservation. In the shadow of the peaks, academic life and ranching exist alongside military operations, evidenced by the Iowa State College Camp, the Louisiana State University Camp, and the J L Ranch.
