2012 Map of Middle Ladder Creek East

About this map

Middle Ladder Cr winds through this expanse of Greeley County, shaping the drainage patterns of an otherwise strictly gridded agricultural landscape. The map reveals the rigid organization of the High Plains, where the section-line road network is defined by routes such as 13 Mile Rd and Co Road A. A significant point for local genealogy and history is the presence of Bethany Cem, located along Co Road B. This small burial ground serves as one of the few named landmarks in a territory characterized by dispersed farmsteads and a wide-reaching network of county roads including Co Rd-17 and Co Rd-22. The geography captured here reflects the early 21st-century state of this rural township, where the economy remains tied to the land and the surveyed corridors that connect it.
