1897 Map of Apishapa

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

The Apishapa River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Southern Colorado, where the transition from high plains to canyon country defined early settlement patterns. Surveyed in the late nineteenth century, the map reveals a landscape dominated by large ranching operations such as the Bonito Cordova Ranch, Yellowbank Ranch, and Juan Baca Ranch. These holdings are scattered among a complex network of arroyos and canyons, including Almagre Canyon and Mustang Creek.
