1965 Map of Gascon

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Santa Fe National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is carved by the Rio de la Casa and Santiago Creek. The transition from the Pecos Wilderness on the western edge toward the settlements of the east reveals a network of high-mountain waters, including Santiago Lake, Enchanted Lake, and Pacheco Lake. Small communities like Gascon and Pacheco Village sit at the base of the peaks, with the latter featuring the Santo Niño Chapel. A complex system of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails provides the primary access to the backcountry, linking historical camps like Camp Davis to prominent landmarks such as Pyramid Peak and Gascon Point. This survey captures the rural character of Mora County before modern development, detailing the remote canyons of Ute Canyon and Capulin Canyon.
