A growth-control measure

Letter from Laird Campbell

Geography – January 2007 – Colorado Central Magazine

Editors:

The Colorado map shows that Chaffee County has more 14,000-foot mountains than any other county in Colorado and probably more than anywhere else in the United States. From north to south they are: La Plata Peak, Huron Peak, Mt. Belford, Mt. Oxford, Missouri Mt., Mt. Harvard, Mt. Columbia, Mt. Yale, Mt. Princeton, Mt. Antero, Tabeguache Mt. and Mt. Shavano.

Possibly this information could be used to paint a picture of perpetual snow which would keep undesirable new residents out of the area.
