About this map

Manning Mine and Capron Mine anchor the northern reaches of this high-altitude landscape, reflecting the persistent extraction efforts in Jackson County during the mid-20th century. The settlement at Gould sits near the base of the Medicine Bow Mountains, serving as a focal point for a ranching economy that lines the valleys of the Michigan River and Illinois River. Notable family operations like the Illinois Ranch, Stelbar-Connor Ranch, and Lobau Ranch are meticulously documented, tracing the human footprint across the basins. Public land management is evident through the presence of the Michigan River Ranger Sta and the Roosevelt National Forest boundary. The map also records essential infrastructure for water and transport, including the Overland Ditch and the Haworth Sch, providing a clear view of the area's development before modern expansion.
