1986 Map of Elk Springs

About this map

Elk Springs stands as the primary point of human activity on this high desert landscape during the mid-1980s, situated along the northern reach of Elk Springs Ridge. The terrain is deeply carved by seasonal drainages and topographic features like Elk Springs Draw and Winter Valley Gulch, which feed into larger systems such as Coal Creek and Wolf Creek. This area of Moffat County shows a specific pattern of industrial exploration, with numerous labels for Oil Well and Gas Well sites alongside several exploratory Drill Hole markers. This infrastructure, often accessed by unimproved roads, highlights the intersection of the region's natural geography with late 20th-century energy development. The presence of named landmarks such as Pinon Ridge and Mc Andrews Gulch provides essential points of reference for those tracing historical land use or local genealogy in this corner of Colorado.
