2010 Map of Dry Gulch

About this map

Sand Creek and its seasonal tributaries carve a network of drainage channels through this section of the high plains in eastern Colorado. The landscape is defined by a rigid section-line grid of rural roads, including County Rd-21 and County Road P, which facilitate movement between sparse agricultural and industrial outposts. Local history is anchored by the Abbott Cemetery in the northeastern quadrant, while the Roderick Oil Field further south highlights the region's extraction industry. This survey reveals how water and energy resources dictate the utility of the land, as drainage from Dry Gulch and Vega Creek crosses the rectilinear transportation paths that connect these remote homesteads and oil operations.
