1970 Map of Cattle Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The drainage patterns of the High Plains are clearly defined in this 1970 landscape, where the seasonal flow of Middle Bijou Creek and East Bijou Creek carves through the undulating terrain. The area's character is fundamentally shaped by these watercourses, including Cattle Gulch and Wilson Creek, which provide the primary relief in an otherwise expansive plains environment. The map captures the quiet infrastructure of the period, notably the long diagonal stretch of a Pipeline and the presence of scattered industrial markers such as a Drill Hole and several Gravel Pits. This survey reflects a moment of sparse development, with human presence marked primarily by rural wells and the management of water resources in the ranchlands of Elbert County.
