About this map

Pawnee National Grassland dominates this landscape in northeastern Weld County, revealing a high-plains topography defined by ephemeral drainage systems and water storage infrastructure. The terrain is marked by seasonal watercourses such as Geary Cr and Willow Cr that carve through the prairie, leading toward the central Reno Reservoir. To the south, Crow Valley Hill stands as a prominent elevation point near the intersection of Sand Cr and the reservoir's eastern drainage.

A network of numbered county roads provides the primary infrastructure for this ranching and grazing region, including Co RD 114 and Co RD 108. These routes connect dispersed water sources like Oasis Spring and specialized ranching features such as Adams and Bunker Reservoir Number 2 and Seven Reverse Y Number 1 Reservoir. The Public Land Survey System grid remains the defining organizational structure for the territory, illustrating the persistent influence of early land divisions on the modern management of these grasslands.
