1962 Map of North Delta

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The confluence of the Gunnison River and the Uncompahgre River shapes the development of this Colorado landscape, where irrigation infrastructure dominates the valley floor. A sophisticated network of water management, including the North Delta Canal, Hartland Ditch, and Bona Fide Ditch, supports the agricultural settlement of North Delta and the nearby Orchard City boundary. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the river, marking the vital transportation corridor through the region in the early 1960s.
