2013 Map of Arapahoe NW

About this map

The Smoky Hill River winds through the southern portion of this Cheyenne County landscape, defining the local drainage patterns alongside Big Timber Cr. This 2013 survey captures the high plains of Eastern Colorado, where the terrain is organized by a precise grid of county roads that facilitate ranching and transit. Primary corridors like Co Road 50 and Co Road 55 provide the framework for movement between sections, while intersecting routes such as Co Road Z and Co Road BB delineate the vast agricultural and open lands of the region. The map illustrates the sparsely populated but highly structured nature of the modern plains, showing how watercourses and a rigid road network dictate the utility of the land.
