1950 Map of Tampa

About this map

Tampa serves as a central point of reference in this landscape of the High Plains, where the Burlington Northern railroad corridor dictates the regional orientation. The terrain is defined by dry drainage systems such as Ennis Draw and Lost Creek, which cut through the open country. This 1950s survey, updated in the late 1970s, reveals a persistent agricultural and ranching infrastructure, most notably at Lutz Ranch. The abundance of marked Windmills and Wells underscore the vital importance of groundwater management in this arid Weld County environment. A significant Pipeline also traverses the southern sections, indicating the area's role in energy transport during the mid-to-late 20th century.
