1956 Map of Johnny Moore Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Medicine Bow Mountains define the high country of this mid-century landscape, where the Canadian River and Michigan River sustain a complex system of irrigation infrastructure. This 1956 survey details the water management network vital to the region's high-altitude ranching economy, including the Kenney Ditch, Maggie Ditch, and Smith Ditch. Settlement is characterized by established homesteads such as Dodge Ranch, Cotter Ranch, and Rogerson Ranch, often situated near the mouths of drainages like Cat Canyon or in the open reaches of Brown Park. Evidence of resource extraction appears at the Marr Mine on the western slopes. Large tracts of protected land, including the Routt National Forest and Colorado State Forest, encompass the rising terrain toward Elk Mountain and Johnny Moore Mountain.
