About this map

Black Forest dominates the northern landscape of this El Paso County survey, where the forested high ground gives way to the drainage systems of Cottonwood Creek and Sand Creek. The map documents a period of transition on the outskirts of Colorado Springs, showing the expansion of the urban fringe alongside established agricultural and transportation infrastructure. Significant rural landmarks include the Hyatt Ranch and Banning Lewis Ranch, while the community of Shirley is positioned along the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad corridor.
