1970 Map of South of Bethune

About this map

Landsman Creek and Beaver Creek define the high plains drainage of this Kit Carson County landscape, recorded just before the 1970s. The terrain is characterized by broad plateaus and the winding path of Sand Creek, showing a rural environment dominated by agricultural infrastructure. Scattered water Wells are marked across nearly every section, indicating the intensive reliance on groundwater for this portion of the Colorado plains. A small settlement area at Raines and the isolated Beloit Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing early families in the region. The inclusion of a Gravel Pit suggests localized resource extraction amidst the vast ranching and farming lands of the eastern plains.
