1954 Map of Cherry Valley School

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Cherry Valley School serves as a focal point for this rural landscape where Douglas, Elbert, and El Paso counties meet. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and drainage systems of Cherry Creek, including West Cherry Creek and East Cherry Creek, which carve deep through the high plains toward Bucks Mountain. Notable for genealogists and local historians are the indicators of shifting settlement patterns, such as the Cherry Sch (Aband) and Pine Grove Sch (Aband), reflecting a time when small rural schoolhouses were consolidating or being left behind as transportation evolved. The map reveals a working land of isolated windmills and wells, where a Jeep Trail and Pipe Line cross through rugged drainages like Crowfoot Gulch and Iron Gulch.
