About this map

Elk Mountain sits at the heart of this high-country landscape where the Medicine Bow River winds northward through a complex system of agricultural irrigation. The town’s history is anchored by the Elk Mountain Cem and its proximity to historical transport routes, including the Old Government Trl. To the south, the foothills of the Medicine Bow Mountains rise toward Big Draw, while the northern landscape is defined by the Saddleback Hills. The map details an extensive network of water management features, such as Haglund Ditch, Alpha Ditch, and Tableland Ditch, which reflect the area's long-standing ranching and water rights infrastructure. Historical travel is further evidenced by named corridors like Rattlesnake Pass Rd and the Elk Mountain Medicine Bow Rd, connecting this isolated settlement to the broader Carbon County region.
