1950 Map of Klug Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Box Elder Creek meanders through this portion of Weld County, defining a landscape where ranching and early water management intersect. Surveyed for the development of the Missouri River Basin, the area shows the critical importance of irrigation in the mid-century West. The map documents the East Canal alongside a segment of the West Canal (Abandoned), illustrating the shifting infrastructure of local agriculture. Named for the family that established operations here, the Klug Ranch and Klug Lake serve as central landmarks, while the presence of the Sky View School suggests a once-active rural community. Industrial footprints are sparse but significant, notably the Klugs Deep Well, which reflects the deep-aquifer exploration necessary to sustain life and livestock in this high-plains environment.
