The South Platte River and its dramatic canyon dominate this landscape at the boundary of Jefferson and Douglas counties. This mid-1960s survey captures a critical water-management corridor, featuring the Filtration Plant near Kassler and the Platte Canyon Reservoir. To the east, the prominent Hogback ridge separates the river valley from the rising foothills of the Pike National Forest, where features like Carpenter Peak and Wildcat Mountain stand out.
