1986 Map of Price Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Danforth Hills define the rugged character of this northwestern Colorado landscape, serving as a backdrop for the extensive energy exploration of the 1980s. The map documents numerous drill holes and oil wells scattered across the upland plateaus and deep drainage cuts, illustrating the industrial footprint of the period. In the lower elevations, Price Creek and its associated Coyote Channel Basin Creek provide the primary water sources for this arid region, where ranching infrastructure like a coral and a storage bin appear alongside natural features like Deep Springs. The naming conventions of the gulches and canyons, such as Ben Mauldin Gulch and Hale Gulch, reflect the localized history of settlement and grazing in the Price Creek area before and during the height of regional resource extraction.
