1952 Map of Yankee Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Wagonroad Ridge dominates this Rio Blanco County landscape, defining the steep drainage patterns of the Piceance Basin in the early 1950s. The area is characterized by high-elevation ranching and early energy exploration, evidenced by the Shale Test Well located south of Yankee Gulch. Small-scale agricultural operations like Reigle Ranch and Duckett Ranch are situated along the lower reaches of Ryan Gulch and Black Sulphur Creek, where water sources provided narrow corridors for settlement in an otherwise demanding environment.
