About this map

The high plains east of Colorado Springs are defined here by a network of ranching homesteads and early aviation infrastructure during the mid-century. The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad bisects the landscape, connecting the town of Falcon with smaller sidings like Elsmere. This era of the region’s development is characterized by numerous family-named properties, including the Wolf Ranch, Banning Lewis Ranch, and Pring Ranch, illustrating the transition from open range to established agricultural parcels.
