1969 Map of Tuttle

About this map

South Fork Republican River defines the drainage pattern of this high plains landscape in eastern Kit Carson County. The small settlement of Tuttle occupies the northeast corner of the sheet, serving as a focal point in a territory largely characterized by rolling topography and intermittent watercourses. Low-lying areas are marked by Spring Creek and the meandering path of Dry Gulch, which cut through the terrain toward the river valley. Sparse industrial activity is evidenced by a Gravel Pit located near the river's bend, while numerous points labeled Well indicate the critical importance of groundwater for ranching or agricultural survival in this semi-arid region. These 1980s updates, based on earlier aerial photography, show the slow evolution of rural infrastructure and land use across the Colorado plains.
