1967 Map of Jasper

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Rio Grande and Conejos counties. High mountain peaks like Bennett Peak and Greenie Mountain overlook a complex network of seasonal camps and administrative outposts, including the Fitton Guard Station and Alamosa Guard Station. The map illustrates a summer grazing economy through specifically named cattle operations such as Shawcroft Cow Camp and the Baxter and Martin Cow Camp. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by the presence of La Jara Reservoir and the Alamosa Terrace Reservoir. Beyond agriculture, the terrain supports educational and recreational uses at the Phillips University Camp and the Lost Cabin Ranch, while several labeled mines and gravel pits indicate localized mineral extraction in the gulches.
