About this map

Black Squirrel Cr meanders through this section of the High Plains, carving a distinct north-south path through a landscape defined by the expansive grid of the Public Land Survey System. The area is characterized by a sparse network of rural roads that follow section lines and topography, including Squirrel Creek Rd and Myers Rd. The southern portion of the sheet is bisected by the county boundary between El Paso Co and Pueblo Co, illustrating the administrative division of this open range. Modern residential development is suggested by localized clusters of named thoroughfares like Mountain Prairie Dr and Meadow Brook Dr, which deviate from the traditional square grid. This 2022 survey documents the transition between the rolling prairie and emerging rural residential corridors, showing how the drainage of Black Squirrel Cr remains the primary natural landmark in a region increasingly shaped by modern road infrastructure.
