1969 Map of Adobe Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The high plains of Moffat County are defined by a network of drainage systems and vital water sources in this late 1960s study. The terrain is notably dissected by the Adobe Springs Creek and the West Prong, reflecting a landscape shaped by intermittent water flow. A single industrial marker, a Pipeline, cuts across the northwestern portion of the sheet, indicating the infrastructure for resource extraction or transport that often characterized this part of Colorado. Genealogy and local history researchers will find the Spring Creek Cem located in the northeastern section, a solitary point of recorded settlement or family heritage amidst the topographical contouring. Numerous points simply labeled Spring highlight the critical role of groundwater in this arid environment, scattered across the township boundaries of T. 9 N. and T. 8 N.
