1955 Map of Grand Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The high plateau of the Grand Mesa dominates this mid-1950s survey, revealing a landscape defined by an intricate network of reservoirs and alpine lakes. This region, straddling the Mesa Co Delta Co line, served as a vital water management area with dozens of named impoundments such as Cottonwood Lake No 1, Big Meadows Reservoir, and Bonham Res. The presence of the Grand Mesa Christian Association and the Columbine Chapel indicates the area's role as a mountain retreat and community gathering point during this era.
