2016 Map of Nunn

About this map

Agricultural development and water management define this portion of Weld County, centered on the high plains settlements of Nunn and Pierce. The landscape is a patchwork of section roads and water infrastructure, essential for ranching and farming in this arid environment. Key water features include the Eichheim Reservoir and the Pierce Lateral canal, which support the region's productivity. Along the seasonal drainages of Spring Cr and Lone Tree Cr, the terrain reveals the natural hydrology of the area, including Rattlesnake Springs and the Coal Bank Watershed CB-1 Reservoir. Private aviation is notably prevalent in this rural landscape, as evidenced by several local landing strips such as Shaull Farm Airstrip, Bellmore Farms Airport, and Reed Airport. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Mountain View Cem north of Nunn, while the detailed street grids of the two towns highlight the community centers of this agricultural heartland.
