About this map

Pawnee National Grassland dominates this expanse of the high plains in Weld County, revealing a landscape defined by water management and ranching infrastructure. The drainage of Wild Horse Creek winds through the center of the sheet, providing a natural focal point for the surrounding terrain. To the northeast, the Bringleson Reservoir stands as a significant hydrological feature, serving the agricultural needs of the region.

A dense network of named windmills, such as Coyote Windmill, Rauth Windmill, and Hilltop Windmill, are scattered across the township and range sections. These landmarks, along with others like Cattail Windmill and Greasewood Windmill, suggest the critical importance of groundwater for livestock in this arid environment. The map is overlaid with a systematic grid of county roads, including Co Road 100 and Co Road 115, which anchor the rural geography of the early 21st century.
