1962 Map of Montrose West

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Uncompahgre River corridor dominates this 1960s landscape, illustrating the critical intersection of natural hydrology and man-made irrigation in Western Colorado. The town of Montrose serves as the focal point, with the Denver and Rio Grande Western tracks threading through its industrial and residential core. Beyond the town limits, the reliance on diverted water is evident through the complex network of the Montrose and Delta Canal, West Canal, and the BNB Lateral, which transformed the surrounding mesas into productive land.
