1963 Map of Klutz Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Slater Flats and Chugwater Flats dominate this landscape, illustrating the plateau-like character of the region along the Platte and Goshen County line. The terrain is dramatically interrupted by a series of deep drainages, most notably Klutz Canyon and its namesake Klutz Springs, which cut into the Goshen Hole depression. This transition from the flat agricultural plains of Iowa Center Flats to the complex canyon systems of Box Elder Canyon and Cedar Canyon highlights the area's geological variety. Local community life is anchored at the southern edge of the sheet by the Town Center Flats Ch and a nearby Cem, reflecting a pattern of rural settlement common to the high plains in the mid-20th century. Scattered Spring labels across the canyons suggest the importance of natural water sources for ranching operations in these drier breaks.
