2013 Map of Brandon

About this map

Brandon occupies a central position in this eastern Colorado landscape, where the intersection of Co-96 and the local grid defined by Broadway Ave and Virginia Ave anchors the small settlement. The surrounding High Plains terrain is characterized by large-scale agricultural and industrial activity, notably the Brandon Oil Field to the southwest. Water management remains vital in this arid region, evidenced by the presence of Chivington Reservoir Number 4 and the drainage of Big Sandy Cr along the western edge of the quadrangle. For those researching local heritage, the Plainview Cem serves as a significant landmark just east of the main town site, while the extensive system of county roads, from Co Road T to Co Road J, illustrates the organized township and range system that governs the Kiowa County countryside.
