1894 Map of Timpas

About this map

The Arkansas River serves as the northern anchor of this landscape, where the bustling rail hub of La Junta emerges at the junction of major transit lines. This 1889 survey captures a critical corridor of Colorado's expansion, following the path of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad as it strikes southwest through the arid drainage of Timpas Creek. The map documents the persistent influence of the historic Santa Fe Trail, which parallels the rail line before veering toward the deep canyon country to the south.
