2013 Map of East of Sevenmile Ranch

About this map

The S Fork Republican River cuts through this high plains landscape at the border of Lincoln Co and Kit Carson Co. The terrain is defined by the broad drainage basins of the river and Duck Cr to the north, showing the natural hydrology of the Colorado eastern plains before it reaches more populated areas. A meticulous grid of county roads, including Co Road 0 and Co Road 45, illustrates the section-line survey system that organized the American West. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the ranching and agricultural infrastructure, where travel is dictated by numbered routes such as Co Road 3C and Co Road M that connect the isolated homesteads and open rangelands of the region.
