2017 Map of Eustis SW

About this map

W Muddy Cr and its many unnamed tributaries define the deeply dissected topography of this portion of Frontier County. The landscape is characterized by a high density of small-scale water management features, including Hess Reservoir, Klein Reservoir, and Schurr Reservoir Number 2, which are essential for agriculture in this semi-arid region. For those tracing family histories or early settlement patterns, the map identifies two significant burial grounds: Independence Cem in the central township and Pleasant Hill Cem to the south. The southern reaches of the quadrangle are dominated by the significant relief of Deer Creek Canyon, which channels drainage toward Deer Cr. A network of rural section-line roads, such as RD 741 and RD 409, provides the primary access across the rolling breaks and tablelands.
