1967 Map of South Fork East

About this map

The Rio Grande River valley dominates this landscape, where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the water through the settlements of South Fork and Granger. This 1960s survey illustrates a complex water management system vital to the region, featuring the Anaconda Ditch, Highline Ditch, and Minor Ditch Road. Cultural markers include the Holy Family Mission and a small Cem near the foothills of Agua Ramon Mountain. To the north, the small community of Agua Ramon sits near a specialized Radio Facility and Radio Patrol Towers, while the southern terrain transitions into the high country of the Rio Grande National Forest. Notable landmarks such as Granger Bridge and the Long Barn indicate the localized ranching and transit infrastructure of the era.
