1982 Map of Cheyenne Wells 3 SE

About this map

Sheridan stands as the primary reference point in this high-plains landscape along the border of Cheyenne Co and Kiowa Co. This 1982 survey reveals a rural area defined by agricultural infrastructure and water management, where numerous Wells are critical to sustaining the arid environment. The map details localized industrial activity through several Gravel Pits, likely supporting the maintenance of the local road network. Grain storage and resource management are evident in the placement of Storage Bins and several Tanks across the sections. The sparse distribution of named features underscores the vast, open character of this part of eastern Colorado, where small settlements like Sheridan serve as vital hubs for the surrounding ranching and farming communities during the late twentieth century.
