1956 Map of Lake Agnes

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1950s, defining the boundary between Routt National Forest and Arapaho National Forest. This region of the Rabbit Ears Range is characterized by remote ranching outposts and high-country timber operations, anchored by landmarks like the Smole Sawmill and Rabbit Ears Lodge. The water management of the era is evident in a network of small upland impoundments such as Basin Reservoir, Milk Creek Reservoir, and Whiteley Peak Reservoir, which supported the livestock and agriculture of family-held properties like Anderson Ranch, Martin Ranch, and Binco Place. Notable peaks such as Baker Mountain and Bear Mountain rise above the drainage basins of Muddy Creek and Frantz Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of this part of the Missouri River Basin development program.
