1982 Map of Lake Albert NW

About this map

White Woman Creek and South Ladder Creek define the drainage of this High Plains landscape in Cheyenne County, where the topography is shaped by wide, shallow draws and intermittent watercourses. The 1982 survey reflects a specialized agricultural and ranching environment, characterized by isolated infrastructure rather than concentrated settlements. Notable landmarks such as the Corral and various Well sites suggest the vital importance of water management and livestock movement in this portion of eastern Colorado. Human activity is further evidenced by a Gravel Pit near the creek bed and scattered Storage Bins used for local grain production. The presence of a Tank and a Drag illustrates the functional, working nature of the land during the early 1980s, providing researchers with a detailed look at rural utility and land use before modern technological shifts in farming.
