1893 Map of Two Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

The Santa Fe Trail cuts a diagonal path through this corner of Southeast Colorado, marking a transition from the early frontier era to the more established ranching and farming landscape of the late nineteenth century. Surveyed in 1890, this map captures the intersection of Bent, Prowers, and Baca counties before many of these early prairie settlements were eventually consolidated or bypassed. Small centers of activity like Brookfield and Ayr anchor the rolling landscape, while Longshore Ranch illustrates the importance of individual livestock operations in the high plains economy.
