1951 Map of Padroni NW

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Peetz Table dominates this high plains landscape of northeastern Colorado, where the flat upland plateau drops away into the drainage system of Lewis and Quincy Creek. The map reflects the agricultural and industrial infrastructure of the mid-20th century, notably the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line running through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Sparse settlement is evidenced by landmarks such as the Buss Ranch, while the presence of several Windmills and a Gas Well Tank underscores the area's reliance on groundwater management and emerging energy extraction during the early 1950s. The terrain is further marked by resource extraction sites like the Gravel Pit, providing a clear look at the rural economy of Logan County before later developments altered the local topography.
