1957 Map of Trail Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The waters of Lake Granby and the Willow Creek Reservoir define this mid-century landscape in Grand County, where irrigation and recreation began to reshape traditional ranching lands. This 1957 field-checked survey highlights the complex water management system through features like the Red Top Ditch and Bunte Highline Ditch, which redirected mountain runoff for agricultural use. Local history is anchored by several named homesteads, including the Slash J Slash Ranch, Miller Hereford Ranch, and Lazy U Ranch, illustrating the area's legacy of high-altitude livestock operations.
