1982 Map of South of Firstview

About this map

Big Sandy Creek winds through the southern reaches of this Cheyenne County landscape, anchoring a region defined by wide drainages and high-plains agriculture. Surveyed in the mid-1970s, the terrain shows a sparse but functional network of rural improvements typical of eastern Colorado, including scattered wells and infrastructure like Storage Bins. To the northeast, the headwaters of South Ladder Creek begin their descent, carving subtle relief into the upland. The map documents an era of established land management, where section lines and local resources such as a Gravel Pit indicate the quiet industrial underpinnings of this ranching and farming territory.
