1973 Map of Rago

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The High Plains landscape of eastern Colorado is defined here by the industrial footprint of the energy sector during the early 1970s. The small settlement of Rago sits in the southern portion of the sheet, providing a central point for the surrounding petroleum operations. Large tracts of land are dedicated to the North Rago Oil Field and the Rago Oil Field, with numerous Oil Wells and Drill Holes scattered across the terrain. This map records the intersection of ranching land and resource extraction, where natural drainage features like Camp Creek, Shears Draw, and Buck Creek cut through the undulating plains. The boundary between Morgan and Washington Counties runs vertically through the western sections, marking a jurisdictional divide in this sparsely populated region of the state.
