About this map

Sunnydale Ch stands as a lonely landmark near the northern edge of this High Plains landscape, situated just north of the winding course of the Arikaree River. The river valley, along with the North Fork Arikaree River, cuts a distinct path through the tablelands of the Colorado plains. This 1970s survey documents a region defined by its wide-open spaces and rural infrastructure, where small markers like Clyde and scattered Wells indicate the human footprint on the land. Spanning the border of Washington and Kit Carson counties, the map reveals a highly structured grid of land divisions and section lines that guided agricultural development and resource extraction in this part of eastern Colorado.
