1956 Map of Boettcher Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The North Fork North Platte River valley in Jackson County anchors this 1956 field-checked survey, showing a landscape defined by ranching and early mountain recreation. Settlers established several homesteads along the river's path, including the Monahan Homestead and the Finiau Homestead, while the Monahan Coal Mine indicates early efforts at resource extraction in this high-altitude terrain. The presence of Fort Boettcher (Resort) and Boettcher Ranch suggests the importance of water access for both agriculture and tourism.
