1967 Map of Jasper

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Rio Grande National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the Alamosa River cuts a deep path through the southern Rockies. Central to this 1960s survey is the settlement of Jasper, positioned along the riverbank near the confluence with Jasper Creek. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks including Bennett Peak, Silver Mountain, and the interestingly named Cornwalls Nose. A network of primitive transportation is evident through various Jeep Trails, Pack Trails, and Stock Driveways that crisscross the high ridges and gulches. Significant administrative outposts like the Fitton Guard Station and Alamosa Guard Station suggest the active management of these timber and grazing lands. Water resources are abundant, ranging from the high San Francisco Lakes to the drainage of California Gulch and Castleman Gulch, reflecting the complex hydrology of the Rio Grande and Conejos county borderlands.
