1958 Map of Beckwith Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Wet Mountain Valley dominates the eastern half of this 1950s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by an intricate network of irrigation systems required for high-altitude ranching. Named canals such as the James Jarvis Swift Creek Ditch No 3, the Lower Smith Kettle Ditch, and the Freer-Beckwith Ditch reveal the intensive water management efforts that supported operations like the San Isabel Ranch. To the west, the terrain rises sharply into the San Isabel National Forest, where the Rainbow Trail skirts the base of the mountains near Buttermilk Draw and Greenleaf Creek.
