1956 Map of Sulphur Mountain

About this map

Sulphur Mountain dominates the eastern horizon of this mid-century Colorado landscape, rising above a network of ranchlands and irrigation systems. The high-altitude terrain is defined by the confluence of the Middle Fork and South Fork of the South Platte River, where a complex water management system is visible through features like the Harrington Ditch, Western Ditch, and Central Ditch. This era shows the valley before significant modernization, capturing historic cattle operations such as Buckley Ranch, Spinney Ranch, and Harrington Ranch along the riverbanks.
