1962 Map of Lands End

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Grand Mesa dominates this 1962 topographic landscape, where the high plateau of the Grand Mesa National Forest drops sharply toward the Whitewater Basin. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the cluster of high-altitude navigation and communication aids, including an Airway Beacon, Radio Towers, and an Observatory situated near the precipice. This region is defined by a complex water management system of small reservoirs, such as Rapid Creek Res No 1, Bolen Reservoir, and several family-named impoundments like the Anderson Res No 1.
