1959 Map of Florence SE

About this map

Hardscrabble Creek and its many tributaries, including Alkali Creek, Cocklebur Creek, and Low Back Creek, define the drainage patterns of this Colorado landscape. The map captures a mix of rural community life and critical water infrastructure as it appeared in the late 1950s. Near the center of the sheet, the Mountain View Community Hall and New Hope Ch serve as local landmarks for the surrounding homesteads and ranching country. To the northwest, the Florence City Water Reservoirs and the Union Highland Cem mark the outskirts of the more developed areas. The terrain transition is marked by numerous watercourses such as Mineral Creek, Adobe Creek, and Fourmile Creek, alongside a single industrial Gravel Pit, providing a detailed look at the local geography where Fremont, Custer, and Pueblo counties meet.
