1967 Map of Jasper

About this map

Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the Alamosa River cuts through complex terrain towards the Terrace Reservoir. The map documents a working mountain environment defined by seasonal grazing and resource management, evidenced by numerous outposts like the Shawcroft Cow Camp, Jim Creek Cow Camp, and the Baxter and Martin Cow Camp. These cattle-rearing sites are joined by government facilities including the Alamosa Guard Station and Fitton Guard Station, illustrating the mid-century administration of public lands.
