1961 Map of Mount Pittsburg

Evidence of early rural habitation is found at the Ponds Mountaindale Ranch and Red Creek Ranch, illustrating the sparse settlement patterns common in this part of the Front Range during the mid-20th century. Industrial activity is noted through scattered Quarries and a secluded Landing Strip, while the complex county lines between Fremont, El Paso, and Pueblo meet in the southern reaches of the map near Sullivan Park.
