1982 Map of Arapahoe NW

About this map

Smoky Hill River meanders across the southern portion of this High Plains landscape, marking a distinct geographical transition in Cheyenne County. In this arid stretch of eastern Colorado, the terrain is defined by the drainage of Big Timber Creek, which cuts through the central sections of the survey. The small settlement of Pelton serves as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking rural development in the late twentieth century. Economic activity in the region is evidenced by the presence of a Gravel Pit near the river and scattered agricultural infrastructure, including Storage Bins and numerous Wells. The placement of these features suggests a landscape deeply tied to water management and extraction during the early 1980s.
