1969 Map of Tuttle

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

South Fork Republican River defines the drainage pattern of this Kit Carson County landscape, where the high plains are carved by intermittent watercourses like Spring Creek and Dry Gulch. The small settlement of Tuttle sits in the northeastern corner, serving as a rare point of concentrated habitation in an otherwise open ranching or farming region. A complex network of numerous unnamed wells and localized industrial activity, such as a Gravel Pit, suggests a reliance on groundwater and local materials to support the area's rural economy. This 1969 survey, which includes purple revisions from 1980 aerial photography, documents the subtle shift in land use and infrastructure, including the placement of landmarks like BR 4198, during a period of transition for eastern Colorado's agricultural frontier.
