1972 Map of Keota SE

About this map

The northern High Plains landscape of the Colorado borderlands is defined by a subtle topography of draws and sparse water sources in this 1972 survey. The terrain is marked by the presence of numerous wells and the occasional Drill Hole, reflecting the region's reliance on underground resources for agriculture and industry. A notable landmark for local historians and genealogists is the Horst Cem, which sits along the gentle rise of the land. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Weld Co and Morgan Co, showing how political lines bisect this open country. In the southwestern corner, the drainage of Bank Draw provides a rare relief to the landscape, carving a seasonal path through the prairie. This sheet documents the state of land use and resource extraction in a quiet corner of the state just before more modern developments would further alter the rural grid.
