1962 Map of M F Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

M F Mountain and the surrounding high country of Moffat County are defined by a complex network of ranching infrastructure and seasonal water management in this 1962 survey. The landscape is dotted with named homesteads and specialized sites such as the Bar 24 Ranch, Railey Place, and Mobley Place, along with the Carver Cabin. These settlements represent the mid-century ranching life in the region, supported by an extensive system of reservoirs including the Wolf Creek Reservoir and a series of four Mancos Reservoirs designed to capture runoff in this arid terrain. Topography ranges from the drainage of Petes Post and The Sloughs to the prominent Baking Powder Ridge. The presence of several natural water sources like Three Springs and Yellow Cat Springs likely dictated the placement of early ranching hubs and livestock routes across Maverick Flats.
