1961 Map of Strasburg SW
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Lowry Air Force Base Bombing Range dominates the western landscape of this 1961 survey, where the high plains terrain was utilized for military training. Located along the border of Arapahoe Co and Elbert Co, the map reveals a stark, functional geography defined by points such as Bomb, Fuse, and Range. This intersection of military activity and rural administration highlights an era when massive tracts of eastern Colorado were cordoned off for Cold War-era defense operations.
