1963 Map of Adena

About this map

Adena stands as the primary settlement on this eastern Colorado landscape, located where the Morgan and Adams County line divides the high plains. The area's water-focused infrastructure is evident through Rosener Reservoir and a network of drainage systems including Bijou Creek, Muddy Creek, and the curiously named Potty Brown Creek. Local social life and essential services are centered around the Adena Union Ch, while the industrial footprint of the early 1960s is reflected in a prominent Pipeline and scattered utility features like a Water Tank and Radio Tower. This survey, updated with revisions from the 1980s, captures the transition of a rural ranching and farming district as it integrated modern energy and water management systems.
