1969 Map of Tuttle

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Tuttle sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape, overlooking the complex drainage system where the South Fork Republican River and Republican River converge. The topography is defined by the sharp incisions of Spring Creek and Dry Gulch into the surrounding plateau, creating a network of draws and ridges that contrast with the flat upland stretches. This 1969 field-checked survey illustrates a sparsely populated agricultural region in Kit Carson County, where land use is oriented toward the watercourses. Scattered Well sites across the terrain indicate the critical importance of groundwater for sustaining the area's homesteads and operations far from the primary riverbanks.
