USGS Topo · Published 1891

About this map

The High Plains along the Colorado Kansas State Line are depicted here during a pivotal era of westward expansion and cattle driving. This 1890 survey by R.B. Marshall captures a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and the convergence of historic transit routes. The legendary Santa Fe Trail cuts through the northern portion of the sheet near Granada Creek, while the north-south Texas Trail traces a path for cattle herds through the eastern borderlands of Prowers and Baca counties.
