About this map

Peterson Air Force Base and the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport anchor this landscape during a period of significant suburban expansion toward the eastern plains. The map reveals the dense residential and educational growth in the Colorado Springs area, evidenced by a high concentration of primary and secondary schools such as James Madison Sch and General William Mitchell High Sch. This development contrasts with the open rangeland to the east, where natural drainage features like Jimmy Camp Creek and Sand Creek are prominent.
