1953 Map of Proctor

About this map

Proctor and the South Platte River corridor anchor this mid-century survey of the Colorado plains. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to High Plains agriculture, including the Harmony No 2 Ditch, Powell Ditch, and the Lone Tree Ditch. Along the southern banks of the river, the Tamarack Ranch State Wildlife Area marks a significant tract of managed riverside terrain. The Union Pacific railroad cuts a straight diagonal through the valley, paralleling the river and connecting the small settlement of Proctor to the wider regional economy. To the northwest, the North Sterling Outlet Canal and Sterling Outlet Levee showcase large-scale water management efforts, while various family-named landmarks like Ramsey Draw and Skinner Draw provide points of reference across the open range.
