1955 Map of Pitchpine Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

High-country ranching and complex water engineering define this landscape within the Routt National Forest during the mid-1950s. The eastern slopes of Pitchpine Mountain descend into a territory marked by family operations like the Carlstrom Brothers Ranch, Brands Ranch, and Irvine Ranch. The irrigation of these high valleys is documented through an extensive network of gravity-fed water systems, including the Lillie Ditch, Boulder Erika Ditch, and Wolfer Ditch, which redirect snowmelt from the mountain forks to sustain local pastures.
