2022 Map of North Sterling Reservoir

About this map

North Sterling Reservoir dominates the lower half of this Logan County landscape, serving as a critical water management feature for the high plains of northeastern Colorado. This contemporary survey details the engineering of the Dam and the extensive North Sterling Canal which diverts water to the surrounding agricultural land. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages, including Darby Creek, Cedar Creek, and Beall Cr, which feed into the reservoir from the north. Historically significant water sources like Seventeenmile Spring and Blood Spring highlight the locations of essential prairie water points. A modern recreational infrastructure is visible along the shoreline through the Beach Trl, Overlook Loop Trl, and South Shoreline Trl, while a grid of county roads such as Co RD 54 and Co RD 25 provide access across the townships of t10n r54w and t9n r53w.
