A 7.5-minute topographic map of the Fort Logan area southwest of Denver, first published in 1965 and printed on thick paper stock in 1967, with green woodland tint marking vegetated ground. The quad covers part of the south and west Denver metro, taking in Littleton, Englewood, and the small towns of Edgewater and Bow Mar, across Arapahoe and Jefferson counties. The sheet has never been folded, and the map area itself is flawless, which makes it a good candidate for framing. The 10-foot contour interval renders the ground near the South Platte in fine detail.
