2013 Map of Peace Valley

About this map

Ninemile Flats dominates the western central section of this Colorado landscape, where the wide, shallow drainage patterns of the High Plains define the local geography. In this rural pocket of Lincoln County, the seasonal flow of Steels Fork and Little Horse Cr creates a subtle topography of draws and ridges, including the curiously named Seldom Ridge Draw. The human footprint is sparse but deliberate, marked by agricultural infrastructure like the Douglas Ditch and water sources such as Andy Windmill. Near the southern boundary, the Kirkland Cem serves as a significant genealogical marker alongside the small settlement of Peace Valley. The presence of the Kuester Reservoir and various creeks like Dead Horse Cr and Pond Cr illustrates the critical role of water management in this arid environment during the early 21st century.
