1961 Map of Timber Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

The Fort Carson Military Reservation dominates this 1994 update of a 1961 survey, where the training grounds meet the rising terrain of the Front Range. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and canyons, with Timber Mountain and Booth Mountain standing as prominent landmarks on the western edge of the quadrangle. Several significant waterways, including Turkey Creek and Sand Creek, cut through the reservation, while seasonal features like Young Hollow and Crooked Canyon mark the complex topography. Along the southern boundary, the map delineates the divide between El Paso and Pueblo counties. This map provides clear documentation of the military land use and water management structures like Duck Pond and the central Reservoir during the late twentieth century, showing the transition from the plains into the foothills.
