About this map

The North Platte River meanders through this mid-century landscape of Jackson County, where a sophisticated network of irrigation ditches supported a cluster of family-owned ranching operations. The terrain is anchored by the prominent Delaney Butte and Sheep Mtn, overlooking a valley floor etched with water management features like the Independent Ditch and Hanson and Wattenberg Ditch. These waterways reflect the essential ranching economy of the era, connecting established properties such as the Briggs Ranch, Bohn Ranch, and Sorenson Ranch.
