2010 Map of Lamb

About this map

Fort Morgan serves as the primary hub at the northern edge of this agricultural landscape, where the southern reaches of the city meet the industrial infrastructure of the Fort Morgan Oil Field. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated water management system designed for high-plains farming, notably the Fort Morgan Canal and Bijou Canal which cut across the grid of county roads. Smaller settlements like Lamb and Moseley are situated along the northern corridor, connected by E Railroad Ave and County Road R. The natural path of Badger Creek meanders through the eastern half of the area, providing a distinct contrast to the rigid geometry of the surrounding section lines and irrigation ditches. This survey captures a moment in the 21st century where traditional ranching and farming operations coexist with active petroleum extraction and the expanding outskirts of the regional trade center.
