1970 Map of Kiowa NE

About this map

West Bijou Creek and Comanche Creek carve distinct paths through the high plains of Elbert County on this 1970s survey. The landscape is primarily defined by these drainage systems, showing the intricate network of gulches and draws, such as East Gulch, that feed the larger watercourses. Human impact on the terrain is focused on utility and resource extraction, evidenced by a Radio Facility in the western portion of the quadrangle and a scattered Well and Gravel Pit near the creek beds. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and township boundaries, including the division between R. 62 W. and R. 61 W., which remains a critical reference for local land ownership and genealogical research in this part of Colorado.
