About this map

North Rush Creek and its southern tributaries define the drainage patterns of this high plains landscape in Elbert County. The map documents a sparse, structured network of rural section-line roads, including north-south corridors like CO Road 181 and CO Road 197, which intersect with primary east-west routes such as CO Road 58 and CO Road 46. The terrain is shaped by the subtle shifts of Apache Cr and the Middle Rush Creek, carving gentle relief into the prairie. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring nature of the Public Land Survey System, showing how the boundaries of t011s r058w and surrounding townships continue to dictate the placement of local infrastructure and land divisions in this ranching country.
