[2][3][1] Blair Mountain in the White River Forest in Colorado was named for James Allison Blair who had been a Supervisor at White River Forest and died at the age of 52 in 1928.

Held in high regard by his superiors for his service, the highest mountain in the area (formerly called 'Old Baldy') was renamed Blair Mountain in James Blair's honor.
