About this map

Rye serves as the primary settlement on this Colorado landscape, situated where the foothills meet the plains. The town is anchored by Main St and the local Po, with the community's history documented at Mount Olivet Cem and Brookside Cem. To the west, the terrain rises sharply into the San Isabel National Forest and the Huckleberry Hills, while Cuerna Verde Park provides a transition between the developed townsite and the surrounding wilderness.

Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Standard Ditch and numerous drainages like Greenhorn Cr and Muddy Cr. The landscape is a network of named canyons and peaks, including Gleason Canyon and Table Mtn. This modern survey records the contemporary road network, from established routes like Old San Isabel Rd to residential developments such as Mountain Shadows Ln and Valley Vista Rd, reflecting the continued growth of this Pueblo County community.
