1981 Map of Howard
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Arkansas River corridor serves as the primary artery through this Colorado landscape, flanked by the Denver and Rio Grande Western RR and several prominent mountain peaks. The settlement of Howard is a focal point, featuring the Howard Sch, a Rodeo Ground, and the nearby Howard Cem. The map illustrates a complex drainage system where Badger Creek, Cherry Creek, and Stout Creek descend from the high ground into the river valley. To the south, the boundary of the San Isabel National Forest encompasses the Rainbow Trail, while the eastern portion is dominated by the heights of Burned Timber Mountain and Copper Mountain. Economic activity is evident through numerous prospects and an Old RR Grade, marking the historical transit and mining patterns of Fremont County before the 1980s.
