1894 Map of Timpas

USGS Topo · Published 1896

About this map

La Junta stands as the primary hub in this late 19th-century landscape, positioned where the Arkansas River meets the heavy infrastructure of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad. The survey reveals a region defined by the transition from high plains to deeply eroded canyonlands, particularly as the Purgatoire River carves through the southern portion of the map. This area is a significant corridor of movement, showing the proximity of the established Santa Fe Trail to the modern rail lines of the era.
