2012 Map of Ridgeview

About this map

Ridgeview serves as the primary focal point of this Dewey County landscape, situated where the high plains are carved by a complex drainage system. The settlement is centered near Saint Josephs Cem, anchoring a community defined by vast agricultural tracts and ranching operations like the Hiett Ranch. This 2012 survey illustrates the essential relationship between the land and the water that sustains it, as several significant seasonal streams traverse the area. Cottonwood Cr and Virgin Cr meander through the northern and central sections, while the southern reaches are defined by the uniquely named W Br Tall Prairie Chicken Cr and E Br Tall Prairie Chicken Cr. The map captures the connectivity of this rural region, with local routes such as Co HWY-15c and Co HWY-15 providing the framework for movement between isolated homesteads and the town center.
