2013 Map of Arsenic Lake

About this map

Rush Creek meanders through the central plains of Cheyenne County, defining the drainage patterns of this high-altitude landscape. The area is characterized by a precise grid of sectional roads, including Co Road G and Co Road L, which facilitate access to remote livestock operations. Arsenic Lake sits in the northern reaches, a notable water feature in an otherwise dry and rolling terrain. The presence of Larson Ranch in the east highlights the enduring importance of large-scale ranching in this part of eastern Colorado. This survey provides a look at the intersection of natural hydrology and the Public Land Survey System, showing how property lines and local infrastructure like Co Road B adapt to the contours of the High Plains.
