About this map

The confluence of the Snake River and Yampa River anchors this 1960s landscape, where the waters pass through the steep Cross Mountain Canyon. This rugged portion of Moffat County is defined by a series of high-altitude features including Twelvemile Mesa and the expansive Pinyon Ridge. The map documents a sparse, ranch-based economy typical of the high desert at mid-century, marking established family holdings such as White Bear Ranch, Rinker Ranch, and Tuttle Ranch.
