About this map

Grand Mesa National Forest dominates the upper reaches of this mid-1960s landscape, where high plateaus like Wilbanks Mesa and Oak Mesa give way to a complex system of water management. The terrain is defined by its agricultural and industrial utility, carved by an extensive network of irrigation features including the Overland Canal, Shindledecker Ditch, and Stingley Ditch. These waterways supported life at the Seven X Ranch and provided necessary resources for the area's small-scale resource extraction.
