1971 Map of Seven Lakes Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Santa Fe Trail cuts through the southeastern corner of this landscape, marking a historic corridor of western expansion across the high plains of Las Animas County. During this 1971 field check, the terrain is defined by wide expansive benches and seasonal watercourses, including the Apishapa River and Salado Creek which drain the northern sections. The Seven Lakes Reservoir serves as a central hydrological landmark, while the southern reaches transition into the distinct topography of Adobe Flats and the drainage of Van Bremer Arroyo. This area, situated between the Tyrone and Flats regions, preserves a snapshot of a sparsely developed rangeland where isolated landmarks like a Spring or various Well sites and livestock Tank placements provide the only infrastructure for local ranchers and land managers in the early 1970s.
