1966 Map of Higbee

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Higbee serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, situated where the high plains meet the intricate drainage system of the Purgatoire River. The landscape is defined by its water management and agricultural infrastructure, evidenced by the Ninemile Canal winding through the Ninemile Valley. This is a rural settlement pattern where life centered around local institutions, including the Higbee Valley Sch and the Higbee Cem, alongside outlying cattle operations like the Patton Ranch.
