1977 Map of Vim School

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Vim School and Rockaway School anchor this corner of the eastern Colorado plains during the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainage patterns of Sidney Draw and the winding course of Twomile Creek, which reflect the reliance on scarce water resources in this arid Weld County region. Evidence of the local economy is scattered throughout the township lines, from the industrial presence of Oil Wells and a Gravel Pit to the agricultural necessity of numerous Wells and a Flowing Well. Notable localized landmarks include the Patton Spring and a pair of Landing Strips, likely serving local ranchers or crop dusters. A solitary Grave located north of the school serves as a quiet reminder of early settlement history in this high-plains environment.
