Certainly not FAA. The FAA only has planes for maintaining the air network (flight test planes and such). In that era it was pretty cheap and easy to hang out your shingle as a charter operator with a single engine airplane. And Alamosa likely had one or two on the field in 1960.

Could also be military, or CO State Patrol. CSP has had a fleet of small airplanes for quite a while.
