1955 Map of Macfarlane Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Illinois River meanders through this landscape in North Park, flanked by the prominent Peterson Ridge and Owl Ridge. The area is characterized by an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure essential for high-altitude ranching, including the Midland Ditch, Oklahoma Ditch No 1, and Baldwin Ditch. Family ranching operations are the primary centers of activity, with sites like Allard Ranch, Hackley Ranch, and Ish Ranch dotting the terrain. Evidence of a changing local population is visible at Larand School, which sits near the small settlement of Larand. A variety of water storage projects are captured in this mid-century survey, from the centrally located Mac Farlane Reservoir to smaller cattle-country impoundments like Hap Reservoir and Addison Reservoir. The Union Pacific line cuts through the northern section, marking the primary transport artery through this part of Jackson County.
