2013 Map of Sorrento

About this map

Big Sandy Creek and Wild Horse Creek carve subtle paths through this high plains landscape of Cheyenne County, where water management is central to the local geography. The rural settlement of Sorrento sits alongside Us-287, serving as a waypoint in an area defined by large-scale ranching and agriculture. The map reveals an intricate network of specialized infrastructure, including several named wind-powered water pumps such as the Town Windmill, School Section Windmill, and Branding Corral Windmill. These features, along with the Drift Fence Windmill and South Windmill, indicate the division of land into sections for livestock management. The precise grid of county roads, including CO Road 9 and CO Road N, illustrates the systematic development of the Colorado plains.
