1962 Map of Haxtun East

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Wildhorse Creek meanders through the high plains of Northeast Colorado, carving a distinct drainage pattern across the landscape of Phillips County and Sedgwick County. The town of Haxtun serves as the primary regional hub, situated along the vital transport corridor of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad. This line, cutting diagonally across the southern portion of the quadrangle, was essential for moving agricultural goods from this prairie region. Local life and history are anchored by landmarks like the Fairfield Cem and early utility infrastructure such as the Sewage Disposal facility. The map captures a transition in land use, where natural draws and creek beds contrast with the rigid township and range grid that organized settlement and farming throughout the mid-20th century.
