1971 Map of Clarkville NE

About this map

Patent Creek winds through the high plains of eastern Colorado, marking the subtle drainage of this agricultural landscape in the early 1970s. Located along the boundary of Phillips Co and Yuma Co, the area is defined by its wide-open survey sections and practical land use. A rural gathering point is found at Ford Ch, which serves as a landmark amidst the gridded section roads and scattered wells. Industrial and transport footprints are visible through a Pipeline crossing the northern portion of the quadrangle, a remote Landing Strip, and a localized Gravel Pit. Benchmarks like BM 3968 and BM 3922 provide precise elevation data for this high-altitude terrain, where fine red dashed lines on the map indicate selected fence lines that define property and grazing boundaries.
