1979 Map of Kim North

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Kim sits at the southern edge of this topographic landscape in Las Animas County, serving as a focal point for the surrounding high plains ranching country. The terrain is defined by the drainage networks of Two Butte Creek and Pintada Creek, which carve subtle depressions across the prairie. A historical through-line is preserved here in the marking of the Santa Fe Trail, which cuts diagonally across the northwestern sections, tracing the footsteps of nineteenth-century pioneers through this arid environment. Local history is anchored by the Edenview Cem and the utility of water sources like Willow Spring and Willow No 2. This 1970s record shows a landscape of wide-open spaces where survival and transit relied heavily on the seasonal flows of creeks and well-placed landings, such as the indicated Landing Strip.
