2013 Map of Aroya

About this map

Aroya and the surrounding plains on the border of Lincoln and Cheyenne counties are defined by the winding course of Big Sandy Creek. This high plains landscape is marked by the presence of family-run operations such as the J O D Ranch and Rush Creek Ranch, reflecting the enduring agricultural character of the region. The map details the local topography through named drainage features like Folger Gulch and Aroya Gulch, which cut through the terrain toward the creek. Near the settlement of Aroya, the Aroya Cemetery serves as a significant landmark for those researching family history in this corner of Colorado. The area is connected by a network of rural roads, including Co-94 and various county routes, illustrating the distribution of remote homesteads across the townships.
