1960 Map of Buckeye

About this map

Gilman Mountain overlooks a landscape defined by the intricate water management systems of northern Larimer County. The irrigation network is prominently displayed through features like the Buckeye Pacific Union Lateral and Buckeye Lateral, which feed into numerous water bodies including Reservoir No 15 and Bubbles Lake. This 1960 field-checked survey highlights the agricultural and industrial infrastructure of the era, from the small settlement at Buckeye to the petroleum operations within the Wellington Field. Traces of earlier transportation methods remain visible via an Old Railroad Grade cutting across the central plains. The map also records the flow of Rawhide Creek through Rawhide Flats and the course of Spottlewood Creek, documenting the vital relationship between the local terrain and the water resources required for the region's development.
