About this map

The Camp Hale Military Reservation dominates the high-altitude landscape of this 1949 survey, reflecting the area's vital role in World War II training. Positioned along the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad, the facility occupies the Eagle River valley near Pando and Tennessee Pass. To the west, the Sawatch Range rises sharply toward Mt of the Holy Cross, where alpine features like the Bowl of Tears and Seven Sisters Lakes mark the headwaters of Cross Creek.
