1951 Map of Klug Ranch

About this map

Klug Ranch and its surrounding high plains landscape define this 1950s-era topographic study of eastern Weld County. The area is characterized by a sparse but deliberate network of water management features, including Klug Lake and numerous well and windmill sites that supported livestock and agriculture in this arid environment. The intermittent course of Elder Box Creek winds through the terrain, which is otherwise marked by subtle elevations like Box Elder. Social and educational life in this rural precinct centered on the Sky View School, located in the northwest quadrant. The map provides a clear look at the mid-century infrastructure of the Colorado plains, where section lines and dirt roads dictate the movement of people and resources between the isolated ranching outposts.
