1997 Map of Battle Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Pawnee National Grassland dominates this corner of Weld County, showing a landscape defined by ranching infrastructure and energy extraction in the late 20th century. Numerous markers for Oil Wells and Drill Holes are scattered across the high plains, particularly north of the prominent Battle Canyon terrain. Water management is central to the area's utility, as evidenced by several named windmills such as Rock Cave Windmill, Baker Windmill, and Two Mile Windmill. These features, along with the Uhl Reservoir, highlight the vital role of groundwater and storage in this arid environment. The map also captures specialized facilities like a Wildlife Enclosure and a central Communication Tower, illustrating the modern multi-use management of public lands. Natural drainages including Sidney Draw, Twomile Creek, and Cedar Creek provide the primary relief for the terrain, carving out the canyons and draws that break up the grassland plateau.
