1971 Map of Webb

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Webb sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape, surveyed just before the 1970s. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of North Bear Creek and Little Bear Creek, which carve winding paths through the shortgrass prairie. This area serves as a transition point between two southern Colorado jurisdictions, as indicated by the Prowers Co Baca Co line crossing the southern portion of the sheet. The landscape is marked by a sparse but essential network of water sources, with numerous sites labeled simply as Well providing the necessary infrastructure for ranching and agriculture in an arid climate. Economic activity is localized, evidenced by a Gravel Pit situated near the confluence of the creek branches, highlighting the extraction of local materials for regional road development.
