2019 Map of Hyde

About this map

Hyde anchors this portion of the eastern Colorado plains, situated along the border of Washington Co and Yuma Co. The landscape is defined by the expansive grid of county roads, such as Co RD 44 and Co RD WW, which partition the high prairie into surveyed sections. Notable water features include Surveyor Cr, which winds through the northwestern reaches, and Deering Lake positioned along the county line to the north. For those researching local heritage, the Hyde Cem stands as a central landmark just north of the settlement. The map illustrates a strictly organized agricultural environment where the placement of small drainage features and rural intersections reflects a late twentieth-century infrastructure supporting the remote ranching and farming operations of the region.
