1950 Map of Tampa

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Tampa stands as a primary focal point in this 1950s study of the Weld County plains, situated where the Burlington Northern railroad cuts a diagonal path across the arid landscape. The map reflects a region defined by agricultural persistence and water management, evidenced by the numerous Windmill symbols and the presence of a Well in the eastern sectors. Natural drainage is limited to ephemeral features like Ennis Draw and the wandering course of Lost Creek, which dominates the eastern half of the quadrangle. A sparse settlement pattern is visible, with the Lutz Ranch marking the northwestern reaches. This survey, later updated with purple revisions in the 1970s, captures the evolution of infrastructure in the Missouri River Basin, including the addition of a significant Pipeline corridor crossing through the southern sections.
