About this map

The settlement of Gary serves as the focal point of this high plains landscape, situated where the arid terrain begins to give way to drainage systems. This 2022 survey captures the intersection of Morgan County and Washington County, an area defined by its systematic grid of county roads and intermittent waterways. The mapping reveals a sparse but vital hydrologic network where Beaver Creek and Buck Creek cut through the sections, alongside the prominent Shears Draw in the northeast.

This modern data from the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates how the Township and Range system remains the dominant structural element of the region. Local researchers will find the precise layout of routes like Co RD 30 and Co RD F critical for understanding modern property lines and access points within the T1N and T2N divisions. The map provides a clear look at how human infrastructure interacts with the subtle elevation changes that define these eastern Colorado plains.
