1994 Map of Buena Vista East

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The Arkansas River corridor serves as the central artery for this Chaffee County region, where irrigation works like the Helena Ditch, Bray Ditch, and Trout Creek Ditch reveal the intensive water management required for agriculture and settlement. The landscape is dominated by the steep ascent toward the San Isabel National Forest, characterized by numerous prospects and mines dotting Triad Ridge and Limestone Ridge. Near the river, the State Reformatory and the Municipal Airport indicate the modern infrastructure surrounding Buena Vista. South of town, Johnson Village and Nathrop anchor the highway routes, while the terrain transitions into a complex of named gulches, including Chinaman Gulch and Arnold Gulch, leading toward the heights of Sugarloaf Mountain and Bald Mountain.
