About this map

Box Elder Creek and its tributaries carve a network of drainage channels across the high plains of Eastern Colorado, as documented in this mid-century topographic survey. The landscape is defined by the transition across the Arapahoe Co Elbert Co boundary, where the terrain rises from the Coal Creek basin in the west toward the higher ridges in the southeast. Evidence of early rural infrastructure is sparse but significant, including the Schley Sch and an Observation Tower situated on a high point overlooking the rolling prairie.
