2019 Map of Sharp Lake

About this map

The high plains of eastern Colorado, where the Lincoln Co-Crowley Co line divides the landscape, define this 2019 survey. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal drainage and intermittent water bodies, most notably Sharp Lake in the northeast and the expansive Ninemile Flats to the west. This territory is primarily rural, organized by the Public Land Survey System into townships like t17s r56w and t18s r57w. A series of local routes, including Co RD A and Field RD, provide access across the dry terrain, following the natural contours of the land around Horse Cr and its tributaries. The sparse distribution of named features suggests a landscape dedicated to large-scale ranching or open range, where water sources like Pond Cr and Steels Fork are critical landmarks for navigation and land management.
