1902 Map of Greeley

About this map

The South Platte River and Cache la Poudre River confluence serves as the anchor for this turn-of-the-century landscape, where a dense network of irrigation and early rail infrastructure supported the growing agricultural centers of Greeley and Evans. This 1899-1900 survey documents the transition of the high plains into a managed river valley, dotted with family ranching operations like Todd's Ranch and Klug's Ranch.
