1950 Map of Bonny Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Bonny Reservoir dominates this high plains landscape at the border of Colorado and Kansas, created by the damming of the Republican River South Fork. The 1950 survey documents the area shortly after the reservoir's creation as part of the Missouri River Basin project, showing the Bonny Reservation Boundary and an adjacent State Game Refuge. The surrounding terrain is defined by a network of drainage creeks, including Cherry Creek and Landsman Creek, which supported a dispersed ranching economy evidenced by family-named sites like Moellenberg Ranch and Foster Ranch.
