1970 Map of Goat Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Blake Ranch and the small settlement of Marnell anchor this 1970 landscape, where the high plains of southern Colorado meet the drainages leading toward the Arkansas River valley. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of seasonal watercourses, including Thomkins Creek, Edson Arroyo, and Sixmile Creek. The reliance on groundwater in this arid environment is evident through several named landmarks such as Lonesome Well, Peck Well, and Dry Lake Well. Industrial infrastructure is represented by the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad corridor, which skirts the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map captures a moment of transition for this rural area, showing local connectivity via Doyle Road 5 Mi. and the prominent geological formation of Goat Butte, which serves as a significant landmark in the central portion of the survey.
