About this map

Hell Creek and Buffalo Creek define the drainage patterns of this Kit Carson County landscape, where the High Plains terrain is marked by the subtle incisions of intermittent watercourses. Field checked in the mid-1970s, the map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural expanse structured by a rigid section-line road grid. The presence of numerous Well sites across the township lines indicates the critical role of groundwater management in this semi-arid environment. These specific points of interest offer a detailed view of the localized infrastructure required for ranching and farming operations during this era, providing a precise spatial record of resource extraction and property boundaries in eastern Colorado.
