1980 Map of Carson

About this map

Carson serves as the focal point of this Grant County landscape, situated where the Burlington Northern railroad cuts through the high plains. The settlement shows its community character through the presence of an Athletic Field and a dedicated Rodeo Ground on the outskirts of the residential grid. Local history is anchored by Emmaus Cem to the northwest and Community Cem to the south, providing clear points for genealogical research. The surrounding terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Carson Hill, Cookout Butte, and the Circle Buttes to the south. Antelope Creek winds through the northwestern corner, contrasting with the man-made infrastructure like the Water Tank and various well sites that supported the local ranching and agricultural economy during this era.
