1955 Map of Independence Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Independence Mountain dominates this mid-1950s survey of Jackson County, Colorado, where high-altitude ranching and mining define the landscape. The map details a complex network of water management, essential for high-country operations, including the Bighorn Cattle Company Ditch and the Huntington (Abandoned) Ditch. These irrigation features, alongside the Independence Ditch, supported local livestock interests and the homesteads at Simmons Ranch and Waldron Ranch.
