1949 Map of Platteville

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The South Platte River corridor south of Greeley is defined here by a sophisticated network of early twentieth-century water engineering. Extensive irrigation works, including the Evans No 2 Ditch, Valley Canal, and Fulton Extension Ditch, snake across the Weld County landscape to support the region's agricultural transition. The town of Platteville serves as the primary hub, situated where the Union Pacific line parallels the river.
