2013 Map of Clifford

About this map

Clifford sits at a strategic junction of high plains drainage and transport, where the waters of Sevenmile Cr and Coon Cr flow southward toward the wider basin of Big Sandy Creek. This 2013 survey of the Lincoln County landscape reveals a strictly organized grid of county roads, including CO Road 38 and CO Road 2R, which partition the prairie into large sections. The settlement itself is anchored by the presence of Clifford Cem, a vital site for local genealogical research, located just off the diagonal path of Us-287 N. The topography is defined by the subtle erosion patterns leading into the creek beds, illustrating the dry-land hydrology typical of eastern Colorado. This map serves as a clear record of the rural infrastructure and land management patterns in the early 21st century.
