1970 Map of Kiowa NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Kiowa Creek and Wolf Creek define the drainage of this high plains landscape north of the town of Kiowa. The 1970 field check documents a rural environment in Elbert County where land use is split between traditional agricultural features and emerging energy infrastructure. Evidence of early settlement is anchored by the Ebenezer Cem, located near the northern reaches of Kiowa Creek. Traces of mid-century industrial activity are visible throughout the quadrangle, including a Pipeline cutting across the southwestern sections and scattered Oil Well sites. Other geographic markers like Dry Creek, natural Springs, and a local Sandpit reflect a terrain where water management and resource extraction were central to the local economy.
