2013 Map of Borden

About this map

Borden and Borden-Siding sit at the center of this rural Colorado County landscape, where the transport corridor of the Interstate and Frontage Rd cuts through traditional ranching and farming lands. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Skull Cr, Miller Cr, and the winding Colorado River near Shaws Bend. The concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Osage Cem, Ijams Cem, and Fitzgerald Cem, indicates a deeply rooted settlement history where small communities were once anchored by local institutions like the Oak Grove School. Industry is represented by the Hamel Oil Field to the south, highlighting the region's diverse economic base of petroleum and agriculture. The map provides a detailed view of local infrastructure, from the rural paths of Co Rd 210 and Hattermann Ln to the significant waterway of Harveys Cr.
