2010 Map of Leader SE

About this map

Woolsey Cemetery and the Busy Bee School sit amid the expansive agricultural grid of eastern Adams County, documenting the enduring community markers of this rural landscape. The terrain is defined by the parallel courses of East Bijou Creek to the west and Muddy Creek to the east, the latter of which is harnessed by the Bramkamp Dam to form the Bramkamp Reservoir. This section of the High Plains illustrates a transition where the managed water of the reservoir and the natural drainages of Lone Tree Gulch and Cabin Gulch meet the rigid geometry of section-line roads like Rector Leader Rd and Peoria Crossing Rd. The map provides a clear look at the sparse but vital infrastructure that sustained local life in the early 21st century.
