1950 Map of Bracewell

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Bracewell and the northern outskirts of Greeley define this landscape at the midpoint of the twentieth century, where the intensive irrigation of the Cache La Poudre River valley is evident in an intricate network of waterways. The transition from agricultural life to suburban expansion is captured by several local landmarks, including the Hazelton School and the Greeley Country Club. Rural education history is well-preserved here, marking several sites like the Plain View Sch (Aban'd) and Lucas School (Aban'd) as they were bypassed by consolidation. The arrival of mid-century recreation is visible in the Drive-In Theatre and the Sharktooth Ski Area, while the industrial backbone remains the Colorado and Southern railroad and numerous reservoirs like Neff Lake and Hogarty Reservoir. This document offers a detailed record of water management through the Boomerang Ditch and Greeley No 2 Canal systems.
