1973 Map of Krider

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor defines the central activity of this Roosevelt County landscape, connecting the small rail sidings of Krider and Cantara. This 1973 survey, with photorevisions through the mid-1980s, captures a transition from traditional ranching features like the Dobie Windmill and scattered Well sites to specialized land use in the southern portion of the quadrangle. A significant section of the Melrose Bombing Range occupies the south, defined by a clear Military Reservation Boundary. The terrain is characterized by the drainage of Alamosa Creek in the northwest and natural Sand Dunes to the southeast, while the presence of several Drill Hole locations and a Gravel Pit suggests localized resource extraction alongside the long-established rail infrastructure and rugged Jeep Trail networks.
