1950 Map of Hoyt

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The semi-arid high plains of the Morgan and Adams County line are captured here as they appeared mid-century, defined by a sparse ranching and agricultural network. The landscape is dominated by the seasonal drainage patterns of Bijou Creek and its tributaries, including Antelope Creek and Rock Creek. Central to the social life of this rural area is the Long Meadow Community Center in the north and a second Community Center further south near the small gathering point of Hoyt. Technical infrastructure for the era is represented by the USGS Testing and Recording Station and a USBR Substation, reflecting the federal involvement in the Missouri River Basin development project. For genealogists and local historians, the Hoyt Cemetery provides a specific point of interest for tracing early families in this corner of the Colorado plains.
