1962 Map of Holyoke NE

About this map

Wildhorse Creek meanders through this agricultural landscape in northeastern Colorado, defining much of the local topography during the early 1960s. The survey illustrates a rural region organized by a strict grid system, where the boundary between Sedgwick and Phillips Counties cuts across the northern reaches. This document was produced as part of the Department of the Interior's effort to develop the Missouri River Basin, capturing the area's transition into mid-century modernized farming. Local infrastructure is sparse but specific, marked by the presence of industrial Storage Bins and Gravel Pits that suggest the primary economic activities of the period. Fine red dashed lines indicate selected fence lines, providing a detailed look at property divisions and land use patterns that are often lost in more generalized modern mapping.
