1978 Map of Moore Draw SE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Moore Draw cuts a prominent path through the high plains of southeastern Colorado in this USGS topographical study based on mid-1970s aerial photography. The landscape of Baca County is defined here by a series of intermittent drainage systems, including Mitchell Draw and Murray Draw, which carve subtle relief into the flat terrain. This map reveals a largely undeveloped expanse, where the primary human footprint is found in the scattered extractive sites such as the Gravel Pits located near the center of the quadrangle and a smaller Gravel Pit to the south. These features suggest a local economy reliant on road-building materials and basic infrastructure during this period. The absence of major settlements highlights the rural character of the region, emphasizing the importance of these natural waterways and the section-line roads that crisscross the territory.
