2018 Map of Herndon NW

About this map

Trinity Cem and Hamper Cem stand as quiet landmarks within this rural Rawlins County landscape, which is defined by a deep network of drainage coulees and draws. The terrain is shaped by the upper reaches of S Fork Driftwood Cr in the northwest and Beaver Cr in the southeast. This 2018 survey reveals a highly organized grid of section lines and gravel routes, including Co RD 439 and RD 27, which provide access to the high plains between the creek beds. Further south, the Janousek / Spingler Cem sits near the banks of Beaver Creek, marking the long-standing agricultural and community roots of the region. The map captures the specialized land use of the High Plains, where the topography dictates the placement of every road and homestead.
