1996 Map of Andrix

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Comanche National Grassland dominates this portion of southeastern Colorado, where the wide, open plains are incised by the drainage of Mustang Creek and Lou Creek. This landscape preserves a critical piece of American frontier history, marked by the clearly delineated Historic Santa Fe Route (Granada Fort Union) cutting across the northern sections. This wagon road represents one of the primary arteries of 19th-century trade and military movement between the Arkansas River and New Mexico. The small settlement of Andrix serves as a lonely geographic anchor in the southern half of the map, accompanied by a small Cem that provides a tangible link for genealogists and local historians tracing the families who homesteaded this dry, shortgrass prairie during the mid-to-late 20th century.
