1956 Map of Jack Creek Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Routt National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, where the high ridges of Owl Mountain and La Fevre Ridge drop sharply toward the Illinois River. The irrigation network of the Oldenburg Ditch, Sutton Ditch, and Olive Ditch reveals a landscape managed for high-altitude ranching, supporting established sites like Jack Creek Ranch and Roslyn Ranch. The presence of a Lookout Tower on the heights of Owl Mountain underscores the essential fire-watch duties required in this timbered terrain during the 1950s.
