2012 Map of Richeau Hills

About this map

Richeau Hills defines this corner of Platte County, where a network of seasonal drainages and springs supported ranching life in the early 21st century. The map centers on the elevation of Squaw Hill and the winding course of Maxwell Cr, illustrating a landscape structured by water access. Long-established holdings like Hill Ranch and the vital Home Ranch Spring anchor the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, while Richard Reservoir Number 1 provides a modern look at regional water management. These features, along with a series of creeks including Hunton Cr and Brush Cr, trace the drainage patterns of the high plains. Grounded in 2012 data, the survey details the limited road network connecting these remote sites, notably Brush Creek Rd and Diamond Rd.
