About this map

Limon serves as a critical plains junction where the high prairie meets the drainage of Big Sandy Creek. This 2019 survey captures the town's modern footprint, characterized by a grid of streets including Main St, Colorado St, and Immel St. The area's reliance on water management is evident through a series of local impoundments such as the Limon Watershed L-2 Reservoir, Limon Watershed L-3 Reservoir, and Nienhuser Reservoir.

Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint the Pershing Memorial Cem on the eastern edge of the settlement, while the presence of the Morgan Community College Limon Center and the Limon Municipal Airport reflects the town's role as a regional hub for the surrounding ranching country. The western boundary is defined by the Elbert Co Lincoln Co line, showing the town's position just inside the eastern plains border.
