1950 Map of Kersey

About this map

The South Platte River and Cache La Poudre River converge in a wide, fertile basin defined by an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure. This 1950s era survey documents the critical role of water management in the region, featuring major systems like the Eaton Ditch, Plumb Ditch, and Latham Ditch that supported local agriculture. Along the Union Pacific railroad, small rural communities and sidings such as Gill, Alden, and Cloverly served as vital links for the movement of goods.
