1956 Map of Boettcher Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Shafer Ranch and Boettcher Ranch anchor this mid-century landscape in the North Park region, where ranching and early tourism intersected at the edge of the Routt National Forest. The map detail reveals a complex network of water rights and irrigation through numerous named ditches like the Shafer Ditch and Zirkel Ditch, drawing from the North Fork North Platte River. For local historians and genealogists, the inclusion of specific sites such as the Brown Homestead, Monahan Homestead, and even a solitary Grave near the Grizzly Helena Trail provides a rare look at individual landholdings and small-scale settlement patterns.
