About this map

Adena serves as the primary focal point of this Eastern Colorado landscape, situated along the southern boundary where Morgan Co and Adams Co meet. The settlement is anchored by the Adena Cem, a vital site for genealogical research in this rural expanse. The drainage patterns of the High Plains are clearly defined by the paths of Bijou Cr and Muddy Cr, which flow through a terrain marked by numerous arroyos and seasonal watercourses.

Water management is a central feature of the local geography, evidenced by several specialized storage sites including Williams-McCreery Reservoir, Rosener Reservoir, and D T Reservoir Number 3. An extensive grid of county roads, such as Co RD 14 and Co RD A, provides the infrastructure for this agricultural and ranching region. The mapping also details the Public Land Survey System divisions, specifically T2N R59W and T1N R58W, which continue to define property and administrative lines in the area.
