1972 Map of Carr West

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Lone Tree Creek and Spottlewood Creek carve through the high plains of the Colorado-Wyoming border, defining a landscape of sparse settlements and ranching infrastructure during the early 1970s. The map highlights the transition between Larimer and Weld counties, where small hubs like Carr and Warren sit near modern transit corridors while older foundations remain visible in the soil. Trace the path of an Old Railroad Grade as it cuts across the northern section, a relic of earlier regional transportation. Local markers of the cattle and sheep industry are scattered throughout, including the Meadow Springs Ranch and various water resources such as Antelope Windmill and the Natural Fort Rest Area. Several sites marked as Prospect and Gravel Pit suggest localized extraction and mining activity in this windswept border territory.
