Summit Springs and the surrounding high plains of northeastern Colorado define this landscape at the border of Logan and Washington counties. The map preserves the site of significant historical conflict, marking the Summit Springs Battlefield Cem and the Grave of Susanna Alderdice, reflecting the era of western expansion and frontier skirmishes. A grid of county roads, including CO Road 60 and the Old Akron RD, provides structure to the open terrain near Jones Flat. This modern survey uses high-resolution data to document a sparsely populated area where historical markers and ephemeral water sources like the springs remain the primary landmarks for local history and genealogy research.
