2016 Map of Spring Canyon

About this map

North Fork Spring Canyon and South Fork Spring Canyon carve through the high plains of eastern Yuma County, revealing the intricate drainage patterns of this semi-arid landscape. This 2016 survey highlights a rigid section-line grid of rural roads, including Co RD 11, Co RD 10, and Co RD 9, which define the agricultural and ranching boundaries of the region. The map captures the subtle topography where the land falls away toward N Sand Cr in the southern portion of the quadrangle. While modern in its production, the map preserves the foundational Public Land Survey System township and range lines, such as t4s r45w, that have dictated land ownership in eastern Colorado since the initial homesteading era.
