1960 Map of Wellington
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The agricultural landscape of Larimer County is defined here by an intricate network of irrigation and water storage, recorded at the dawn of the 1960s. Wellington serves as a central hub, supported by the Burlington and Colorado and Southern railroads, including the distinct Wellington Siding. To the west, the community of Waverly sits near the North Poudre Canal, illustrating the vital role of engineering in this semi-arid region. The map reveals a dense concentration of reservoirs, such as Douglass Lake Reservoir No 10, Bee Lake Reservoir No 5, and the expansive Windsor Reservoir Divide No 8. Rural life is marked by local landmarks like Rocky Ridge Sch and established crossroads such as Meyers Corner and Kenyon Corner, providing essential geographic anchors for genealogists and local historians.
