2016 Map of Sturgis NW

About this map

The high plains borderland between Baca Co, Colorado, and Cimarron Co, Oklahoma, is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and gravel roads. In this sparsely populated landscape, drainage patterns like the winding Goff Cr provide the primary break in the geometric layout of the land. The map illustrates a rural territory where movement is dictated by a network of numbered county routes, such as E0050 Rd and N0440 Rd, which facilitate ranching and agricultural access across the state line. This survey captures the methodical organization of the American West, highlighting how modern infrastructure follows the ancient Public Land Survey System boundaries, including t35s r43w and t35s r42w.
