1969 Map of Pole Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Little Snake River winds through the northern reaches of this Colorado landscape, defining a corridor of early water engineering in Moffat County. The map documents an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure designed to harness the river, including the Gibson DITCH, Blair DITCH, and Trowel DITCH, alongside the West Side Canal. These features reflect the vital importance of water rights and land management in the high plains. South of the river, the terrain rises into a series of drainages such as Gledhill Draw and the extensive Pole Gulch system. Industrial markers of the late 1960s are evident in the form of scattered Oil Wells, a Gravel Pit, and various drill holes, indicating the area's transition toward resource extraction while maintaining its fundamental ranching and agricultural character.
