1982 Map of Firstview

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Firstview occupies a high point on the plains of Cheyenne County, serving as a critical junction for the Union Pacific railroad during the early 1980s. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Ladder Creek, South Ladder Creek, and Willow Creek, which cut through the high plains terrain. The presence of several Wells and dedicated Storage Bins indicates the agricultural and ranching reliance on groundwater and grain handling in this arid region. Industrial activity is represented by localized Gravel Pits and a prominent Radio Tower, while the settlement at Firstview itself remains a concentrated focal point of activity along the rail line. This survey provides a precise look at the rural infrastructure and water management systems necessary for life in eastern Colorado before the turn of the century.
