1959 Map of Highland Flats

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Highland Flats and the surrounding high plains of Converse County are defined by a network of family-operated livestock operations and seasonal watercourses. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Cheyenne River and its Dry Fork, where labels like River Flat Draw and Harland Flat indicate the critical role of river-bottom land in this arid environment. Ranching families have left a permanent mark on the landscape, with landmarks such as Hornbuckle Ranch, W Reynolds Ranch, and the Eighty-Eight Ranch (Site) serving as primary centers of activity.
