1921 Map of Saddleback Hills

About this map

Saddleback Hills dominate the western portion of this high-plains landscape, where early 20th-century ranching and rail infrastructure meet the headwaters of the Medicine Bow River. The Union Pacific line serves as the primary corridor of movement, passing by the settlement of Carbon and several water sources vital to steam operations and livestock, including Como Lake and Allen Lake. The distribution of named springs such as Missouri John Spring, Hi Allen Spring, and Jacks Spring suggests a reliance on specific water points in a semi-arid environment.
