2022 Map of Sturgis NW

About this map

Cimarron Co, Oklahoma, and Baca Co, Colorado, meet along the northern boundary of this high plains landscape. The terrain is characterized by a disciplined grid of rural section roads, including N0450 Rd and E0030 Rd, which cut across the vast, open drainage of the southern Panhandle. In the lower portion of the map, the ephemeral flow of Goff Cr creates the most significant breaks in the topography, carving subtle valleys through the agricultural and grazing lands. This 2022 survey illustrates the enduring nature of the Public Land Survey System, where the intersection of townships like t6n r8e and t5n r8e defines the movement and settlement patterns of this border region. It is a quiet study of the modern frontier, where long stretches of road like E0080 Rd link isolated properties across the state line.
