Every species described as new, the descrip­ tion based wholly or in part on Colorado specimens, is included. For the year 1914, it has seemed best to include everything in the volumes of periodicals bearing that date, although some of the last numbers were not actually issued until early in 1915. The abbreviations are the same as those of the former list; t. 1.= type locality, while extinct species are marked t. The size of the list is surprising, and shows the richness of Colorado in new materials, as well as the activity of workers.

L.; [ed.], New Mexico Geological Society 22nd Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 340 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1971 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

  • Fort Garland San Luis Valley Colorado Paul Richardson 2010
    Fort Garland San Luis Valley Colorado Paul Richardson 2010 Fort Garland, Colorado is in the San Luis Valley of south central Colorado. The ³Fourteeners´ of the Sangre de Christo mountains dominate the scene to the north with Blanca Peak being the closest. As Mont Blanc in France, Blanca (white) is named for the snow-capped mantle the mountain carries much of the year. To the south the valley opens in a broad expanse extending into New Mexico. Fort Garland was established by the Army in 1858 to provide protection for early settlers in the valley. It had a garrison of over 100 men. The original fort buildings are still there as part of the Fort Garland Museum which is run by the State of Colorado. Kit Carson was guide to John C. Fremont¶s travels from California to New Mexico (1842-46). He was commandant of the fort from 1866 -7. He was known for his abilities to deal equably with Indians and different ethnic groups which made him effective in his duties. On holiday weekends in summer the local community members act as living history ³actors´ at the fort. It is a very informative experience to walk the grounds, explore the buildings, and talk to experts who can explain the history to you first hand. Following are some pictures taken during a couple of visits. The picture on the cover is of the huge (30X50 feet I was told) battle flag at the center of the parade ground. Enjoying playing the role. Locals forming Calvary troop At least he tied me in the shade Trading was a staple of fort life.

A section of river in what is now southeastern Colorado once formed the border be- tween Mexico and the United States. Photo: Courtesy of History Colorado BORDERLANDS of SOUTHERN COLORADO he most prominent landmark near Pueblo, Colorado, the moun- T tain that inspired the patriotic song “America the Beautiful,” is Pikes Peak. Rising to 14,115 feet, it is named for Zebulon Mont- gomery Pike, a U.S. Army explorer who traveled through the Southwest in 1806 and 1807 on a mission of geopolitical reconnaissance, soon adding to the young nation’s lust for westward expansion. His accounts were compiled and translated into three languages for readers abroad. “Pikes Peak or Bust!” was the motto for prospectors during the Colorado gold rush. BY COLEMAN CORNELIUS 22 THE MAGAZINE OF THE COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM STATE | WINTER 2019 23 "We’re using borderlands as a lens to reveal the ways in which people from multiple places, perspectives, and traditions come together in these spaces. Sometimes they collide and some- times they mix, but they always form new ways of being. We feel like that really represents southern Colorado,” The exhibit is part of a History Colorado initiative called Borderlands of Southern Colorado. Through interconnected displays and lectures at its museums in Pueblo, Trinidad, and Fort Garland, History Colorado presents southern Colorado as a region whose inhabitants have been affected across generations by historically shifting political boundaries and related strife.

  • Fort Garland
    FORT GARLAND MUSEUM A Condensed History – Part 2 LIFE AT FORT GARLAND Living Quarters … The fort's modest, utilitarian layout offered essentially two degrees of comfort, depending on a man's rank. The commandant's quarters featured several rooms at the center of Officer's Row. He had his own kitchen, parlor, office with a fireplace where business could be conducted, a dining room, and rooms for his wife and children, if they had accompanied him. The commandant supplied his own furnishings, including furniture, curtains, and china, if he wanted his dwelling more homelike. Only the multi-roomed dwellings along Officers' Row featured south- facing windows, which caught the low-angled winter sun, and in summer lay in the shade of Many officers brought their families to live at cottonwoods ringing the parade ground. the fort, and artifacts of domestic life were unearthed there more than a century later. The accommodations for the noncommissioned officers and enlisted men, on the other hand, provided only the barest of necessities. Inside the barracks for both cavalry and infantry, on the fort's east and west flanks, Spartan simplicity ruled, especially in the early days. Two men shared a bunk and nearby racks for their uniforms. Gun racks circled the upright cedar pillars supporting the sod-heavy wood roof above. An open fireplace at one end of the long barracks provided precious heat, while wall- mounted oil lamps offered dim light on cold winter nights. For those who had committed a serious offense, accommodations could be harsh indeed. The fort's jailhouse cells, one observer wrote, were "nothing but large wooden boxes, only ventilated by a small opening in the roof.
