1973 Map of Shaw

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Shaw serves as a lone outpost on the high plains of Eastern Colorado during the early 1970s. This survey illustrates a quiet ranching landscape defined by the drainage systems of the North Fork Arikaree River and Gordon Creek. The terrain is characterized by subtle elevation changes and expansive open space, with the county line between Washington Co and Lincoln Co cutting directly through the heart of the area. This map reveals a sparse settlement pattern typical of the region, where roads primarily follow section lines across the prairie. The geography centers on the branching tributaries of the Arikaree, which create the primary topographical variation in an otherwise uniform agricultural and grazing district.
