1962 Map of Storm King Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Colorado River corridor dominates this 1962 landscape, serving as the primary conduit for transportation and irrigation in this part of Garfield County. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the riverbank, cutting through the steep terrain beneath Storm King Mountain. This era of land use is defined by a complex network of water management, evidenced by the Vulcan Ditch, Sykes and Alford Ditch, and Chacra and Pack Ditch, which redirect water from the river and its tributaries like Canyon Creek to support local agricultural interests.
