2013 Map of Buffalo Springs Ranch SE

About this map

Curtis Cem serves as a lone local landmark in this corner of Washington County, situated along the east-west corridor of Co Road 48. The landscape is defined by the high plains of eastern Colorado, where a rigid grid of section-line roads, including Co Road 55 and Co Road 54, facilitates agricultural access across the undulating terrain. In the northeast, the drainage of Rock Creek cuts across the grid, providing a rare natural break in the otherwise strictly surveyed township and range system. This 2013 survey illustrates a classic prairie settlement pattern, where infrastructure like Co Road HH and Co Road LL follows the cardinal directions, maintaining the organized footprint established by early homesteaders even into the modern era.
