1968 Map of Rose Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Rose Ranch sits at the heart of this late-1960s landscape where Kiowa and Bent counties meet. The terrain is defined by wide open expanses and subtle depressions, marked by essential water sources such as Government Spring and a solitary Well. The presence of the Aqueduct in the southwest corner and a remote Drill Hole to the northeast suggests a landscape where water management and resource exploration were paramount to local survival and industry. Educational needs for the scattered ranching families were served by the Prairie Center School, located in the northern reaches of the survey area. This map documents a period when rural infrastructure was tied to small, localized centers of community and industry before the further consolidation of modern ranching operations.
