1962 Map of Haxtun West

About this map

The town of Haxtun serves as the primary hub of this 1960s agricultural and energy landscape, positioned at the edge of the Logan and Phillips County line. The settlement pattern is defined by the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad, which runs straight through the plains toward the smaller community of Dailey. This era represents a period of resource extraction on the High Plains, evidenced by the Dailey Oil Field and scattered infrastructure like the local Radio Tower. Local life is anchored by the High School and a communal Cemetery, while the natural drainage of the land is shaped by the winding paths of Wildhorse Creek and the North Fork Frenchman Creek. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of rail-based commerce and the emerging oil industry in northeastern Colorado.
