1997 Map of Dover

About this map

Dover serves as the focal point of this northern Colorado landscape, situated along the drainages of Lone Tree Creek and Little Owl Creek. The map detail captures the specialized land use of the High Plains during the late twentieth century, dominated by the Pawnee National Grassland and the Central Plains Experimental Range. This intersection of conservation and agricultural science is highlighted by the presence of the Pawnee National Grasslands Research Center, reflecting the region's importance in rangeland studies. Aside from these institutional markers, the terrain is defined by a network of intermittent streams like Spring Creek and several Gravel Pits, illustrating a landscape shaped by both natural water cycles and local resource extraction. Numerous water tanks dot the map, indicating the continued reliance on managed water sources for ranching operations in this arid environment.
