1972 Map of Lone Star

About this map

Lone Star serves as a central reference point in this corner of Northeastern Colorado, where the high plains landscape is defined by the ephemeral flow of several regional waterways. The drainage patterns of Rock Creek, Red Willow Creek, and Surveyor Creek dictate the topography, carving shallow valleys through the terrain. The map documents a sparsely populated rural district where agricultural infrastructure and natural resource extraction are primary features, evidenced by several Gravel Pit sites and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the southern sections.
