1951 Map of Point Of Rocks

About this map

Point of Rocks stands as a prominent topographical landmark in this section of Weld County, surveyed in the early 1950s as part of the Department of the Interior’s program for the Missouri River Basin. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral path of Sanborn Draw, which cuts through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. This area represents a classic high-plains ranching environment, where the infrastructure of survival is clearly marked by a sparse but essential network of water sources. The map reveals numerous Windmill and Windmills sites scattered across the sections, indicating the necessity of groundwater for livestock and homesteads. The Praira School and a lone Water Tank serve as the primary human identifiers in a territory otherwise shaped by undulating terrain and township lines.
