2019 Map of East of Lewis Lake

About this map

Big Sandy Creek winds through the arid high plains of Cheyenne County, carving a wide, intermittent drainage basin through the landscape. This 2019 survey captures the quiet isolation of the eastern Colorado plains, where the water systems of Big Sandy Cr and Big Spring Cr provide the primary geographic relief. The map reveals a highly structured rural landscape defined by the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t15s r47w and t16s r48w organizing the terrain into distinct sections. A sparse but functional network of county roads, including Co Rd X and Co Rd J, cuts across the vast open country, following the section lines and connecting the distant reaches of the county. The mapping details the delicate wetlands and drainage patterns that characterize this portion of the western steppe.
