1978 Map of Ninemile Spring

About this map

Ninemile Spring anchors this portion of Crowley County, where the high plains terrain is defined by a sparse network of seasonal watercourses and utilitarian landmarks. The landscape is primarily shaped by the drainage patterns of Breckenridge Creek and Cramer Creek, which cut through the open country of the high prairie. In this late-1970s record, human presence is marked by isolated infrastructure, including Cudahy Road and a scattering of industrial and agricultural sites such as a Gravel Pit and a lone Well. This topographic study reveals the fundamental reliance on groundwater sources in this arid region, as evidenced by the namesake Ninemile Spring and an additional unnamed Spring. The map serves as a clear document of the rural road network and the topographical contours that directed local ranching and transit in this part of Colorado.
