About this map

Nunn and Pierce anchor this high plains landscape of northern Weld County, where the transition from agriculture to energy production is clearly visible. The grid-like layout of the county road system, including County Rd-104 and County Rd-88, organizes a terrain shaped by water management and natural drainages. To the south, the Pierce Oil Field indicates the region's industrial footprint, while the Pierce Lateral canal system and Coal Bank Watershed CB-1 Dam reveal the sophisticated water engineering required for local survival.

Local landmarks such as the Mountain View Cemetery and Bellmore Farms Airport provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The landscape is further defined by its water features, ranging from the meandering Spring Creek and Coalbank Creek to the contained waters of Eichheim Reservoir and Crom Lake. This map serves as a detailed record of the intersections between human settlement and the prairie environment at the start of the 2010s.
