About this map

Rattlesnake Creek and Hay Gulch define the drainage patterns of this High Plains landscape as it appeared during the late 1960s. The topography is marked by a series of parallel ridges and valleys, where agricultural and ranching infrastructure like a Water Tank and numerous wells are essential features of the rural economy. Human activity in the area is further evidenced by a prominent Pipeline that traverses the terrain and extraction sites such as a Gravel Pit.
