1954 Map of Lodore School

About this map

The Green River carves a sweeping path through the high-desert terrain of northwestern Colorado, defining the agricultural and ranching history of Browns Park. In the mid-1950s, this landscape was characterized by a series of river bottoms named for early settlers, including J S Hoy Bottom, Nelson Bottom, and Allen Bottom. These fertile flats along the water were the primary sites of human activity, as evidenced by the Two Bar Ranch and the Lodore Sch. The survey records several earlier homesteads that had already fallen into disuse by this era, such as Spitzie Place, Sterling Place, and Buffham Place, providing a clear record of changing land ownership and residency. High ground like Diamond Mountain and the deep cuts of Goodman Gulch frame the valley, while a network of primitive routes like the Matt Trail provided access to the isolated springs and draws of this remote corner of Moffat County.
