1969 Map of Adobe Springs

About this map

Adobe Springs and the drainage of Spring Creek define this high-altitude landscape in Moffat County as it was documented in 1968. The terrain is characterized by numerous seasonal water sources and intermittent flows, including the West Prong Spring Creek, which cut through the arid topography. This 1969 field-checked survey reveals a quiet, open region where human activity is limited to a few specific corridors. A long Pipeline traverses the northwestern section, cutting across the contour lines of the hills. The most significant historical landmark is the Spring Creek Cem, a lonely burial site located in the northeastern quadrant near the creek's upper reaches, providing a vital point of reference for genealogists and local historians studying the early ranching families of northwestern Colorado.
