2010 Map of Lindon

About this map

The settlement of Lindon anchors this rural landscape on the High Plains of eastern Colorado. This USGS topo survey reveals a strictly organized grid of agricultural infrastructure, characterized by long, straight thoroughfares such as County Rd S and County Rd-10. The terrain is subtly carved by ephemeral drainage patterns, most notably the winding course of Sand Creek which bisects the eastern half of the area and Vega Creek to the west. A key site for genealogists and local historians is the Lindon Cemetery, situated on the banks of a creek tributary. This map provides a clear picture of the region's ranching and farming layout as it existed in the early 21st century, showing how the land is partitioned into large parcels defined by the county road system.
