1951 Map of Hoyt

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The settlement of Hoyt and its surrounding plains are documented here just as the post-war era brought specialized federal infrastructure to this section of the Colorado high plains. Situated along the boundary between Morgan Co and Adams Co, the area is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Bijou Creek and Antelope Creek, which carve through the wide Flats and past the distinctive rise of Bidwell Hill. This 1951 survey reveals a landscape transitioning from traditional ranching to include modern utilities and scientific study, evidenced by the USBR Substation and the USGS Testing and Recording Station. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies centers of social life like the Long Meadow Community Center and the Hoyt Cemetery, providing essential coordinates for family history and the study of rural community networks during the mid-century.
