1967 Map of Jasper

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Rio Grande National Forest high country, straddling the boundary between Rio Grande and Conejos counties, is defined by its network of administrative outposts and high-altitude water sources. At the center of the sheet, the small settlement of Jasper sits along the winding course of the Alamosa River, served by a network of jeep and pack trails. This 1967 field-checked study records the logistical infrastructure of the mid-20th century forest service, including the Fitton Guard Station near Bennett Creek and the Alamosa Guard Station further downstream. The landscape is punctuated by prominent peaks like Bennett Peak and Cornwall Mountain, while the hydrology is dominated by alpine features such as the San Francisco Lakes and Silver Lakes. Local mining history is represented by the Miner label near Jasper Creek, while the livestock era is evident in the presence of several established stock driveways across the mountain passes.
