2016 Map of Idalia

About this map

Idalia serves as the central hub for this High Plains landscape in Yuma County, situated at the intersection of Wieser Ave and several county routes. The map reveals a deeply rooted settlement history through its concentration of burial sites, including the Mildred Cem, Saint Johns Evangelical Cem, and Lucas Memorial Cem. Perhaps the most distinctive historical marker is the Grave of Buffalo Hunter located in the northwest, a literal point of interest that connects the modern agricultural grid to the frontier era. The terrain is defined by the gentle drainage of Armknecht Cr and a rigid system of section-line roads, such as Co RD 9 and Co RD 12, which organize the vast prairie into a functional ranching and farming network.
