2013 Map of Lindon NE

About this map

Lindon Oil Field sits in the northwest corner of this high plains landscape, indicating the specialized energy industry that punctuates the rural landscape of Washington County. The topography is defined by the gradual drainage of Gordon Creek in the southern portion of the sheet, where the land breaks into subtle draws and depressions. A rigid grid of county thoroughfares, including Co Road AA and Co Road 11, organizes the territory into a patchwork of section lines typical of the Public Land Survey System. Us-36 E serves as the primary east-west artery, connecting this quiet agricultural and industrial area to the wider region. This survey documents the intersection of natural watercourses and the human-imposed geometry of resource extraction and transportation in the early 21st century.
