1954 Map of Elder

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The confluence of the Apishapa River and the Arkansas River serves as the geographic anchor for this mid-century topographic study. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation engineering, where the Catlin Canal, Oxford Farmers Ditch, and Rocky Ford Highline Canal weave across the terrain to support local agriculture. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor follows the northern riverbank, passing through the small settlement of Elder.
