1969 Map of Peconic

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The settlement of Peconic sits as a lonely outpost along the eastern plains of Kit Carson County, anchored by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line. This survey, conducted in the late 1960s, reveals a landscape defined by its vital water sources and transportation infrastructure. Numerous groundwater Wells are scattered across the terrain, reflecting the reliance on sub-surface irrigation for the region's agricultural survival. The local topography is carved by the drainages of Little Beaver Creek, Middle Beaver Creek, and Sand Creek, which wind through the township lines of T 8 S and T 9 S. Travelers along the primary roadway would have found a brief respite at Roadside Park, while the local economy is punctuated by several Gravel Pits, indicating the small-scale extraction of materials for regional road maintenance and construction.
