1970 Map of Pando

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Camp Hale occupies the center of this high-altitude landscape, marked by its legacy as a World War II training site in the Colorado Rockies. The settlement of Pando sits along the Eagle River, serving as a key point of reference for the valley's transport history. An Old Railroad Grade and the Colorado Trail trace the movements of past laborers and travelers through the steep terrain between Hornsilver Mountain and Ptarmigan Hill. The map highlights a complex water management and extraction history, shown through the Wurts Ditch and various prospects, alongside the El Capitan Mine near Taylor Hill. These features reveal the mid-century transition from active mining and military operations to a landscape preserved within the White River National Forest and the Holy Cross Wilderness.
