About this map

The Camp Hale Military Reservation dominates the high-altitude landscape of this 1949 survey, marking the wartime and post-war presence of the U.S. Army's mountain training grounds. Situated along the Eagle River and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad, the area includes the settlement of Pando and the strategic Tennessee Pass. The map serves as a detailed record of the mining and mountaineering history of the Sawatch Range, featuring the iconic Mt of the Holy Cross and its Bowl of Tears.
