2016 Map of Vallery

About this map

The settlement of Vallery lies along the northern edge of this Morgan County landscape, positioned between the high-speed transit of the interstate corridor and the historical waters of Bijou Creek. The map documents a highly structured rural environment, where the section lines of the Public Land Survey System dictate a rigid grid of local routes like Co Rd 12 and Mcr 10. This intersection of infrastructure is highlighted by the presence of small aviation facilities, specifically Kent Airport and Vallery Airport, reflecting the importance of private flight in the expansive plains of Eastern Colorado. Beyond the modern roadways, the natural drainage patterns of Sand Arroyo Cr and the engineered flow of the Bijou Canal illustrate the long-standing management of water resources in this arid agricultural region.
