1967 Map of Round Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Brannigan Camp and Soapstone Camp anchor the northern reaches of this high-plains landscape, situated just below the border where Wyoming and Colorado meet. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and springs, including Spottlewood Creek and Rawhide Creek, which historically supported ranching operations in this arid region of Larimer County. Traces of earlier transportation and infrastructure are visible throughout, most notably the Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the eastern sector and the long Wire Draw that marks the central valley. Notable landmarks such as Round Butte and the nearby Round Butte Reservoirs provide essential orientation points for researchers tracking the development of water management and livestock grazing. This survey provides a distinct view of the land before modern expansion, where isolated outposts like Jack Springs Camp and Upper Barton Camp were the primary markers of human presence across the high Flats.
