About this map

The Red Willow Community Center serves as a lone hub for this rural stretch of northeastern Colorado, mapped here in the early 1970s. Located in Yuma County, the landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Coyote Creek, Willow Creek, and Rock Creek, which cut across the high plains. The density of wells scattered across the township lines indicates the critical importance of groundwater for the local agricultural economy and livestock operations. This map illustrates the intersection of several named creeks, such as Surveyor Creek, providing a detailed look at the hydrology and land management of the region before modern large-scale developments. The presence of a substation near the western edge of the survey area highlights the infrastructure supporting these remote homesteads and ranching communities.
