1961 Map of Cow Creek

About this map

The North Platte River winds through this high-plains landscape in Carbon County, defining a valley where water management and ranching dictate the pattern of human settlement. The 1961 field survey records an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure essential for the high-altitude climate, including the Ridding No 1 Ditch, Cherokee Ditch, and Reynolds Ditch. These canals trace the contours of the land to support several named agricultural holdings such as Ryan Ranch, Elk Hollow Ranch, and Rainbow Ranch.
