1982 Map of Cheyenne Wells 3 SW

About this map

Cheyenne Co and Kiowa Co meet in this high plains landscape of eastern Colorado, defined by a sparse network of energy and transport infrastructure. The map depicts a period of modern resource extraction and utility expansion, evidenced by the presence of an Oil Well and a Pipeline cutting across the survey area. The terrain is largely dominated by the drainage of Big Sandy Creek, which winds through the southern portion of the sheet. Industrial and navigational landmarks are few but significant for local history, including several Gravel Pits and a dedicated Landing Strip in the northern sections. This 1982 edition reflects the utilitarian character of the region, where wide-open spaces are punctuated by technical markers like a water Tank and scattered Wells, serving as critical points of reference in an otherwise open environment.
