The largest of the buildings (#10), which was the main ranch house, can be identified by its form only and retains no historic integrity. Building #9 is deteriorated, but does retain considerable integrity and could be successfully restored. Building #14 is a remnant which is generally intact and retains its historic integrity. The two fragments, #12 and #15 contribute to the character of the site, but do not have significance in their own right. The context of the site retains some of the characteristics of a typical ranch homestead, but the addition of the commercial buildings obscures some of that context. In conclusion, the historic significance of the site remains only in buildings #9 and #14. Building #9 could be successfully restored and #14 should be stabilized if not also restored. This would retain the evidence of the early ranching history on the site. The buildings on the ranch were reviewed in the fall of 2016. The review consisted of a visual assessment of the structures on the property and a search of the Garfield County assessor's office. See addendum B for complete assessments of significance and integrity on the three historic structures. Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 2of13 Lake Springs Ranch / Quigley Ranch History The history of the Lake Springs Ranch/Quigley Ranch is the story of ranching in the Roaring Fork Valley. Settlement in the late 1800s was focused on mineral extraction, but by the early 20th century the economy turned to ranching. The lower Roaring Fork provided large tracts of grazing lands suitable for cattle and farming, which drew many immigrants from Italy, England and Ireland. Christopher Quigley was one such immigrant. Christopher Quigley (b.1885) arrived in the United states from Ireland in 1909. He may have arrived shortly after in the Roaring Fork Valley, but he does not appear in the Federal Census until 1920. His wife Mary (b.1882) arrived from Ireland in 1910. They had three sons; James V. (b. 1911), John J. (b. 1913) and Daniel P. (b. 1916). All the boys were born in Colorado according to the census, and they don't appear anywhere other than Garfield County, which leads to the conclusion that the family was already living and working the ranch that was known as the Quigley Ranch by 1911. In support of that conclusion, there are several transactions recorded in 1913 and 1914 related to cattle and horses being bought and sold and offered as collateral. Christopher and his family appear in the census in 1920, 1930 and 1940 in the same precinct, and the land maps from the 30s show two parcels of land, one under John J. Quigley and one under James V. Quigley. In 1940s a patent is recorded with the federal government for 640 acres of land under James V. Quigley. It's possible to imagine that the original Quigley Ranch was divided up for two of the sons when the patent was finally filed. No other activity is recorded on that property, until the 1970s when both James and his brother Daniel are listed as owners of this property. Dan P. Quigley married Ellen Margaret in 1945. Ellen was also born of Irish immigrant parents and the couple settled on the Ranch and raised three daughters. Ellen was born in 1913 to Michael and Mary Higgins from County Cork Ireland who had settled in Colorado Springs, CO. She had two sisters and three brothers. Dan and Ellen had three daughters and in later years lived in Bullhead City, AZ. In 1968 the Quigleys gifted a portion of the ranch to the new Colorado Mountain College. Along with several of their ranching neighbors, they formed the parcel that is now the Spring Valley Campus. In 1989 the remaining ranch property was sold to the Berkeley Family Trust. The site continues in an agricultural use, as the Rivendell Sod Farm. As an aside, another Quigley family also resided in Garfield County. Harry A. and Lucy V. Quigley do not seem to be related to the Christopher Quigley family. They were both born in the US of US born parents, whose parents were born in England. The Harry Quigley family was very active in the 1910s buying and selling mining claims, particularly oil shale and bitumen producing properties. Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 3of13 Building # 9 view looking northeast view looking southeast Architectural Description: Building 9 is a small hand hewn log building with flat notched corners. The building is a simple one story front gable with a centrally located door facing west. The gable ends are infilled with board and batten siding. The form, details, construction and windows are typical of the early 20th century ranch buildings. Though the condition of the building is rough, it is a significant historic building. construction date: c. 1910 Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 4of13 south elevation, above left. roof detail, above north elevation, at left. north elevation of east addition Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 5of13 Building # 10 Building 10 is a one and one half story wood frame building with several one story additions and enclosed porches. This is the original ranch house and the central portion is recognizable as a historic fragment. However, the accumulation of additions and alterations have significantly obscured the original house. This building does not retain any historic integrity. construction date: c. 1910 Building #12 This structure is another historic fragment. It contributes to the historic character of the site but it is not significant in its own right.

Misc Buildings There are a handfull of miscellaneous sheds of varying ages. None of these are historically significant, nor do they contribute to the historic significance of the site. Building #13 Building #13 is located across County Road 114 from the sod farm complex. This building and its associated garage are all new construction. Neither of these are historically significant, nor do they contribute to the historic significance of the site. Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 12of13 Buildings #14 & 15 These two structures are vacated remnants. These buildings are set on a site located across County Road 114 from the original Ranch House (#10). The log building (#14) is constructed of hand hewn logs with notched corners, the log ends are left long. It has a shallow roof pitch and minimal rectangular openings. The roof is corrugated metal sheets. These characteristics may place this building in an earlier time frame than Building #9. Building #15 is a shed of unknown date. It is clad in corrugated metal The log building is historically significant, but without additional information it is difficult to determine its relationship to the two other buildings on the site. Even as a remnant, this building does contribute to the historic significance of the site. construction date: c. 1910 Lake Springs Ranch • Historic Survey • 2016 page 13 of 13 Appendix A Map of the Ranch and key to building locations / N N N N :"\\( — :/ / / / \ \ \III 1 II �- N N N N \ 1 \ \\\\/ __—_-------�\ •i\N/Fati\ I I ft/i((( IIII j \\ N jr2--\) \\ \ \� \\\ \A \\, J� / // / �(I I III I I I I I 1 N N N 1 1 \\ \ / / / / — -- \ r' 1I 11/612 I I I I I I j I \ 1 / ,N N N N N • \ \ \ 1 1\ 1 \ \ • \/ / \ 1 I 1 \ N N N N __ --- ' / / ---- //) ('1 (11 (I I/ 11: \\ i 11 1 j III I \ I / \\ \ \ I I \ \\ / i~J �/ /�I I I I I I I I III 1 I ,\\\ \ I 1 IIIA 1 1 I N N N N, �� 1 I 1 \\\\ / 7 \ I 1 I I\\\ \ \ \ \\ 77 :\: \ 1 i 1 I I \\ \ \\‘\\\\\\\\\.\\ I 1 / / / / / 1 I #81 # = ���\ I �� /'J// // % ( 1 \\\\1\\1) 1 1 \\ \ 1 r-\ //I // 7_//7// // // /) \\\\\ I I I /// / / / // // //#111 I 1 \\ \ \� / \ \l i _ /�1 \\\` \\ /// /i ��' // //, / J) i I i I \I)/i1 \ / \`\� 1•I \\ I l \\ I o \ I \ \�I \ II\ 1 1 I\1 '1 \ \\I�I \ .\II \ I1 \— �/i��fi,C.r�,.'• \\, \----`--i--�---/ —� --'— i—/—_�— — �—��—/�� / I /�I ///i, //�/// / /, II \\A \ \ \ / / ))//)///////' / / //J /l / / / I /i /� / / / / ,/ / /// / 77 77 \ I l / \\\\\\ / i / // //jtt&A__ e+re\R \l‘I,\\I11\ I\ / // / / d tErZBI�Ctnt'En rLe n , 1 1 / / / -6980-vI /I bqi ng\ldypz i h\ at on d nomintended �i / / // 1 / / 1 1 1 1 1 I / / / � / / ��11 xe�red nt\suReyehkdtionorTetzzt�sZzes7/ 7/' 1 I I / / / / /\\N N I I USGS Map portion 29 4ea i r� ti r - tis :ti • 25 • a This map includes portions of four USGS Maps: • Carbondale • Cattle Creek • Glenwood Springs • Shoshone all maps are 1987 the original map scale is 1:24,000 the map on this page is no at that scale PP ,V-7fc 65 /- -r Y 1 ` . 1 :::-_--,,--;.r.-3-,-"7- :on) it u .. r'� ' fes.- .16-,E.,....." \N.. _MLA-. • ' 1 :°'' '.Y.1 A5 (-Fri ( 311 K!:-=� I f t ,0'c- ..'1 fid! 3 f -,' f 1 ..•ti 1''t .- _" - ��4iti 1 iti, Appendix B Architectural Inventory Forms Building #9 Building #10 Building #14 Resource Number: n/a Temporary Resource Number: 9.3961 CR114 OAHP1403 Rev. 9/98 COLORADO CULTURAL RESOURCE SURVEY Architectural Inventory Form I.

Level of significance: National State Local X 42. Statement of significance: This building is the physical expression of early life in rural Garfield County. Most likely this was one of the original buildings on the ranch and may have been the first ranch house while the larger house (building 10) was being constructed. This log building has a form and proportions that are more refined than the typical utilitarian log structure of this period. The vertically proportioned double hung windows are also an indication of a more refined design and probably use as a residential building. The roofing materials are also more refined than the typical sheet metal roofing common in this area. While these materials may be a later adaptation, they demonstrate a commitment to the continued use of the building as a residence. 43. Assessment of historic physical integrity related to significance: The building is deteriorated, but still maintains its form, materials and character. The additions do obscure the original building and have an impact on the integrity of the structure. The east addition in particular has not gained its own historic significance. The north addition could have its own significance; however, its loss would not impact the significance of the core structure. Page 4 of 5 Resource Number: n/a Temporary Resource Number: 9.3961 CR114 Rehabilitation of the core log building and removal of one or both additions could restore this building to a high level of integrity.

Assessment of historic physical integrity related to significance: The original 1909 building is enveloped by additions and/or enclosed porches on three sides. New siding covers the entire building with the possible exception of a small area on the south side. Three original window openings remain on the exterior but the original windows themselves have been replaced. The remainder of windows and doors on the building are non -historic. While the form of the original ranch house can still be discerned, there is a complete loss of material, detail and any porches or historic additions that may have existed. The alterations have almost completely compromised the historic integrity. VII. NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENT 44.

Historical background: Christopher Quigley (b.1885) arrived in the United states from Ireland in 1909. He may have arrived shortly after in the Roaring Fork Valley, but he does not appear in the Federal Census until 1920. His wife Mary (b.1882) arrived from Ireland in 1910. They had three sons; James V. (b. 1911), John J. (b. 1913) and Daniel P. (b. 1916). All boys were born in Colorado according to the census, and they don't appear anywhere other than Garfield County, which leads to the conclusion that the family was already living and working the ranch that was known as the Quigley Ranch. In support of that conclusion, there are several transactions recorded in 1913 and 1914 related to cattle and horses being bought and sold and offered as collateral. Christopher and his family appear in the census in 1920, 1930 and 1940 in the same precinct, and the land maps from the 30s show two parcels of land, one under John J. Quigley and one under James V. Quigley. In 1940s a patent is recorded with the federal government for 640 acres of land under James V. Quigley. It's possible to imagine that the original Quigley Ranch was divided up for two of the sons when the patent was finally filed. No other activity is recorded on that property, until the 1970s when both James and his brother Daniel are listed as owners of the property. Dan P. Quigley married Ellen Margaret in 1945. Ellen was also born of Irish immigrant parents and the couple settled on the Ranch and raised three daughters. In 1968 they gifted a portion of the ranch to the new Colorado Mountain College along with several of their ranching neighbors. In 1989, the property was sold to the Berkeley Family Trust. 36.
