1956 Map of Sulphur Mountain

About this map

The Middle Fork South Platte River winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, its waters channeled by an intricate system of irrigation infrastructure including the Harrington Ditch and the South Ditch. This mid-century survey illustrates a ranching economy in transition, where working homesteads like the Buckley Ranch, Harrington Ranch, and Spinney Ranch are established alongside the developing Pike-San Isabel Village. The map reveals the repurposing of industrial history for water management, specifically noting the Old Railroad Grade Ditch, indicating where former rail infrastructure was adapted for local utility.
