1891 Map of Catlin

USGS Topo · Published 1891

About this map

The Arkansas River serves as the primary artery for this portion of Otero County, dictating the placement of early settlements and transportation routes. Surveyed in 1889 under A.H. Thompson, the landscape reveals a stark contrast between the riparian corridor and the arid plains. Along the southern bank, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad links the growing community of Rocky Ford with the settlement at Catlin. Further north, a parallel path is forged by the Missouri Pacific Railroad, connecting stops like Numa, Meredith, and Lolita.
