2022 Map of Sheridan Lake SW

About this map

The border of Kiowa Co and Prowers Co bisects this landscape of the High Plains, where the terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Big Sandy Cr. This arid region in eastern Colorado is characterized by a sprawling grid of county roads, including Co RD 57 and Co RD 59, which navigate the subtle elevations and depressions of the prairie. The most significant landform is Coon Valley, a wide drainage basin that cuts through the central portion of the map, illustrating the natural water-carved geography of the area. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a detailed record of the Public Land Survey System divisions, marking the townships and ranges like t20s r45w that shaped the settlement and agricultural development of this sparsely populated ranching country.
