About this map

The Canadian River meanders across this high-altitude landscape, defining the transition between the Medicine Bow Range and the industrial activity of the North Park basin. In the mid-1950s, the region was characterized by a mix of public forest lands and private ranching interests, with the Routt National Forest and Colorado State Forest covering the eastern terrain. Family holdings such as the Dowell Homestead and the Dwinell Ranch are situated near the waterways, while the McCallum Oil Field and Battleship Oil Field illustrate the early extraction infrastructure of the era, complete with a network of pipelines and oil tanks. The presence of the Ute Pass and numerous irrigation features like the Ditch network suggest a landscape managed for both timber and grazing, where water management was essential for sustaining operations far from major population centers.
