1955 Map of Elk Mountain SW

About this map

Cheesbrough Ranch and several other family-named holdings define the ranching landscape of Carbon County in this mid-century survey. The terrain transitions from the lower elevations of Pass Creek Basin toward the higher ground of the Medicine Bow National Forest. The complex water management of the era is evident through numerous irrigation features, including the Haglund Ditch, Highland Ditch, and Robinson Ditch, which redirect flow from the Medicine Bow River and its tributaries.
