1954 Map of Cherry Valley School

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Cherry Valley School stands as a central landmark in this mid-century mapping of rural Colorado, where the high plains meet the transition to the foothills. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several major drainages, including West Cherry Creek and East Cherry Creek, which carve through the terrain south of Franktown. This 1954 survey, updated with 1969 aerial revisions, documents a shifting educational landscape in Douglas and Elbert counties. While the primary school remains active, the presence of the Cherry Sch (Aban'd) and Pine Grove Sch (Aban'd) suggests the consolidation of earlier pioneer-era school districts. The topography rises toward Bucks Mountain in the west, while a network of Jeep Trail routes and seasonal waterways like Iron Springs Gulch trace the remote canyons of the divide.
