1965 Map of Dawson Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Dawson Butte rises as a prominent landmark in the center of this 1960s survey, overlooking a landscape defined by the parallel corridors of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroads. These transit lines trace the eastern edge of the quadrangle near Tomah, while the western terrain transitions into the Pike Nat For. Settlement patterns here reflect a mix of early educational and community centers alongside mid-century developments like Monte Vista Estates and Perry Park Ranch. Genealogists will find several rural institutions noted, including the Glen Grove Cem and a series of historic school sites such as Oakland Sch, Lone Tree Sch, and Glen Grove Sch. The presence of the Continental Divide Raceway near the northern boundary captures a specific era of Colorado automotive history, while drainage features like West Plum Creek and Jackson Creek anchor the local topography.
