2022 Map of Judson Hills

About this map

Judson Hills and its surrounding drainages define the landscape of this portion of Morgan County, where the high plains of eastern Colorado are carved by an intricate network of draws and canyons. The presence of Sterling Spring and the Whittington Reservoir in the north and east suggests a reliance on scattered water sources in an otherwise arid region. To the south, agricultural infrastructure becomes more prominent with the Riverside Intake Canal and Christensen Reservoir Number 1 feeding the local land near the Blackpot Ditch. Named landmarks like Minter Hill, Stony Point, and High Hill provide navigational anchors across the open terrain, while a series of deep cuts including Sterling Canyon and Scott Canyon illustrate the erosive power of the intermittent Wildcat Creek system.
