1956 Map of Spicer Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Spicer Peak and the high country of the Rabbit Ears Range define this mid-century look at the border of Jackson and Grand counties. The landscape is a network of ranching homesteads and sophisticated water management systems, where the Continental Divide winds through the southern reaches of the map. Private family holdings such as the Van Valkenburg Ranch and Chas Murphy Ranch are situated near extensive irrigation features like the Koping Ditch and Jordan DITCH, which redirected alpine snowmelt to support high-altitude grazing.
