1969 Map of Lay SE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Lay Creek and its drainage network define the topography of this Moffat County landscape as it was documented in the late 1960s. The terrain is marked by the presence of industrial and resource extraction activity, specifically noted through several Drill Holes and scattered Oil Wells. The central and southern portions of the map are bisected by the prominent Big Gulch, which serves as a major geographical landmark alongside the North Fork. This survey provides a specific look at the rural land use of the era, where isolated infrastructure like a Flowing Well and Gravel Pit indicate the local reliance on water management and mineral resources. The mapping of these specific points of interest captures the state of Colorado's energy and resource development in this high-plains environment shortly before 1970.
