1954 Map of Cherry Valley School

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Cherry Valley School sits as a central landmark in this mid-century survey of the high plains where Douglas, El Paso, and Elbert counties meet. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of Cherry Creek and its major tributaries, including West Cherry Creek and East Cherry Creek. This period of the 1950s shows the shifting rural infrastructure of the region, marked by the label for Cherry Sch (Aband) and Pine Grove Sch (Aband), signaling a consolidation of local school districts. The terrain rises to Bucks Mountain in the west, while numerous seasonal draws like Crowfoot Gulch and Iron Gulch cut through the ranching country. Sparse infrastructure, such as a prominent Pipe Line and a winding Jeep Trail, illustrates the remote character of this high-altitude prairie before modern suburban expansion reached these county lines.
