1948 Map of Mount Big Chief

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Cheyenne Mountain dominates the landscape south of Colorado Springs, where the transition from high plains to the Front Range is defined by steep canyons and military installations. The Camp Carson Military Reservation occupies a massive portion of the eastern foothills, featuring the Camp Carson Hospital and a large Rifle Range at the base of the mountains. This mid-century survey captures the area before the era of major suburban expansion, focusing instead on ranching operations and mountain retreats.
