1978 Map of Stonington SE

About this map

The North Fork Cimarron River winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, marking a significant hydrological feature on the high plains near the border of Baca Co and Morton Co. This 1978 survey highlights the industrial expansion of the era, documented by numerous extractive sites including the Gas Well in section 18 and several Oil Wells concentrated in the southeastern corner. The topography is further defined by the Sand Arroyo in the northwest and the flat expanse known as Westola. Landowners and researchers can trace the meticulous grid of section lines and property boundaries that cross the Colorado Kansas state line, revealing a rural economy shifting toward energy production while maintaining its traditional agricultural character.
