2016 Map of Otis

About this map

The town of Otis serves as a critical junction on the High Plains, where the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railway cuts across the landscape. This 2016 survey highlights the grid-like organization of Washington County, defined by a dense network of county roads such as Co RD 40 and Co RD QQ that partition the agricultural terrain. To the south, Haverland Pond and the Otis Cem provide local reference points for genealogists and historians tracking family roots in the area. The map also captures the seasonal watercourses of Surveyor Creek and the small settlement of Calhoun, illustrating the modest but enduring footprints of commerce and community in this expansive section of eastern Colorado.
