2022 Map of Rush

About this map

Rush sits at a high-plains crossroads where the borders of El Paso, Lincoln, and Elbert counties meet. This 2022 survey details a landscape defined by expansive ranching and dryland farming tracts, crisscrossed by a grid of rural routes like Jacobson Rd and Gieck Rd. The drainage patterns of Steels Fork and its tributaries, including W Br Steels Fork Horse Cr, carve subtle relief into the terrain. For genealogists and local historians, the Crescent Cem south of the main settlement provides a vital point of reference for family research in this eastern Colorado community. The naming of roads after local families, such as Trogilo Rd and Whittemore Rd, reflects the deep-rooted agricultural heritage of the region, where seasonal water sources like Pond Cr remain critical landmarks.
