1968 Map of Spring Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Arikaree R cuts through this corner of Yuma County, defining a landscape marked by the complex drainage systems of Spring Canyon and the North Fork South Fork North Sand Creek. Surveyed in the late 1960s as part of the Department of the Interior’s program for the Missouri River Basin, the topography reflects a sparsely settled ranching region. Isolated homesteads and landmarks like Sharp Ranch and Winfield are connected by a network of unimproved roads and the prominent path of Highway 36. The map captures the agricultural footprint of the era, where dozens of scattered wells support the local water needs across the expansive high plains terrain.
