1948 Map of Ralston Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The rugged foothills of the Front Range are captured here during a period of transition in the late 1940s. Distinctive landmarks like Ralston Buttes and Mt Tom overlook a landscape carved by Ralston Creek and Van Bibber Creek. This area, mapped in cooperation with the City and County of Denver, reflects the vital intersection of ranching and water management, evidenced by the Ralston Res and several family-named ranching operations like the Ralston Creek Ranch and Centennial Ranch.
