1997 Map of Carr East

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The high plains of the Wyoming-Colorado border define this landscape, where early ranching and railroad infrastructure shaped the development of northern Weld County. Scattered family-named landmarks like Davis Windmill, Schnoor Windmill, and Shaklee Windmill reveal a pattern of persistent water management essential for livestock in this arid environment. The small settlements of Carr and Rockport serve as anchors along the transport corridor, while the southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the protected expanse of the Pawnee National Grassland. Drainage patterns from Lone Tree Creek and Owl Creek carve through the terrain, leading toward the prominent elevation of Simpson Mesa in the northeast. This 1990s revision provides a clear record of the intersection between industrial pipelines, historic campsites like Baxter Camp, and the enduring agricultural footprint of the region.
