1974 Map of De Nova SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The boundary between Washington Co and Yuma Co defines the central axis of this High Plains landscape as it appeared in the mid-1970s. This region is characterized by its sparse settlement and reliance on groundwater, as evidenced by the numerous instances of Well locations distributed across the terrain. The presence of Donald Ranch provides a specific point of reference for local family history and the agricultural heritage of the Colorado plains. Apart from these ranching features, the inclusion of a Drill Hole suggests the ongoing exploration of natural resources beneath the surface during this period. The map's layout of section lines and fence lines illustrates the systematic division of the land, reflecting the enduring legacy of the Homestead Act and the spatial organization of eastern Colorado ranching country.
