2010 Map of Adler Creek

About this map

Arikaree River flows across the northern reaches of this Yuma County landscape, defining a terrain of wide-open plains and agricultural section lines. The map reveals a dispersed rural community where legacy family names are preserved through landmarks like Thompson Ranch and the Idler Brothers Airport. For genealogists, the placement of the Olivet Cemetery and Idler Family Cemetery provides essential geographic context for early residents of the area. The grid-like road network, including County Rd 10 and County Rd P, connects isolated homesteads and ranching operations. In the far southwest corner, the Royce Darling Memorial Golf Course introduces a recreational landmark to an otherwise working agricultural landscape. Seasonal drainage patterns are marked by Adler Creek and the North Fork Spring Canyon, showing the natural hydrology that has shaped land use in this part of eastern Colorado.
