1977 Map of Battle Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Battle Canyon provides a focal point for this landscape in Weld County, where the high plains terrain is defined by drainage systems and industrial activity. The map reveals a high concentration of Oil Wells and drilling sites scattered across the township lines, indicating the energy development prevalent in the region during the 1970s. For those tracing the movement of water through this arid environment, the courses of Sidney Draw and Twomile Creek are meticulously mapped alongside Cedar Creek and the Uhl Reservoir. This network of intermittent streams and springs underscores the vital importance of water resources to the local ranching and industrial economy. Near the center of the sheet, the Homestead Roadside Park and a prominent Radio Tower serve as identifiable landmarks amidst the rolling topography, while a Gravel Pit near the reservoir points to the extraction of local materials for regional infrastructure.
