1956 Map of Antero Reservoir NE

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The South Fork Platte River winds through this high-altitude Park County landscape, which by the mid-1950s reflected a ranching economy established along historic transportation corridors. The corridor of the Old Railroad Grade follows the river, serving as a reminder of earlier rail connections that once supported this part of the Missouri River Basin. Isolated family holdings such as Weber Ranch, Jamestown Ranch, and Oakley Ranch are scattered across the terrain, indicating a pattern of spread-out rural life. Public infrastructure appears in transition, evidenced by the Pleasant Valley Sch (Aband) and an Abandoned Ditch near Agate Creek. The map provides a detailed view of the water resources essential for livestock, including Antelope Spring and various unnamed springs that sustain the surrounding pastures.
