1970 Map of Agate

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Agate sits as a central railroad node in the early 1970s, defined by its position along the Union Pacific line as it cuts southeast across the high plains of Elbert County. The landscape is a network of ephemeral watercourses and livestock infrastructure, where East Bijou Creek and Agate Creek weave through the terrain. Evidence of the local agricultural economy is visible in the clusters of Storage Bins and the Water Tank near the tracks, essential markers for steam-era remnants and modern freight operations.
