1950 Map of Tampa

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Tampa stands as a primary focal point in this 1950s study of the high plains of eastern Colorado, positioned alongside the Burlington Northern railroad. The landscape is characterized by a sparse but vital network of water and infrastructure necessary for ranching and transport in a semi-arid region. Named landmarks such as Lutz Ranch provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local land ownership and settlement patterns. The terrain is defined by wide ephemeral drainage systems, most notably Ennis Draw and Lost Creek, which cut across the topography. Numerous windmills are indicated throughout the area, marking the critical reliance on groundwater to support the livestock and small settlements that dotted this portion of the Colorado-Weld county line during the mid-twentieth century.
