2019 Map of De Nova NW

About this map

Jack Cr winds through the southern reaches of this landscape in Washington County, defining the primary drainage pattern for an area largely organized by the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals the meticulous grid of Section, Township, and Range lines, including t1s r50w and t1s r49w, which dictate the placement of the local transportation network. A system of county routes, such as Co Rd 29 and Co Rd Tt, follows these administrative boundaries, reflecting the agricultural and ranching heritage of the Colorado plains. This 2019 survey documents a sparsely settled region where the interaction between natural seasonal waterways and human-imposed geometry remains the dominant geographic feature, providing a clear view of the rural infrastructure connecting disparate homesteads and fields via named corridors like Field Rd and Co Rd 22.
