About this map

The Corral Bluffs escarpment dominates this post-war landscape in El Paso County, revealing a ranching economy defined by family-named landholdings. This 1940s topography captures a transition where traditional livestock operations like Boucher Ranch and Mitchell Ranch were connected by a sparse network of dirt roads including Blaney Road and Drennan Road. The drainage patterns of Williams Creek and Chico Creek dictate the placement of several windmills, which were vital for sustaining the remote homesteads of the eastern plains.
