2010 Map of Trimble Lake

About this map

Trimble Lake and its associated Best Dam serve as central points in this arid expanse of eastern Colorado. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainage patterns of North Fork Mustang Creek and South Fork Mustang Creek, which converge as they move eastward across the high plains. A rigid grid of section-line roads, such as County Road T and County Rd 7, overlays the natural topography, illustrating the systematic land division typical of the region's agricultural and ranching history.
