2010 Map of Lake Albert NW

About this map

South Ladder Creek and White Woman Creek define the drainage of this high plains landscape in Cheyenne County. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a stark, grid-like infrastructure typical of the region's agricultural development. The terrain is partitioned by a meticulous network of rural transit lines, including primary routes like County Hwy G and secondary arteries such as County Road H and County Road F. These roads follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how human settlement and land management have been imposed upon the natural winding courses of the creek beds. For those studying the rural layout of eastern Colorado, this map provides the exact positioning of county-maintained infrastructure at the beginning of the decade.
