2015 Map of Verona

About this map

Verona serves as the focal point for this Sheridan County landscape, where the high plains are carved by an intricate network of drainage systems. The topography is defined by numerous named draws and gulches, such as Roode Draw and Tibbets Gulch, which channel water toward the complex prongs of Dutch Creek. This 2015 survey reveals how the local geography manages water in a semi-arid environment, notably through the Burlington Reservoir and Verona Reservoir. The drainage patterns are particularly specific here, with features like Middle Fork Dow-Prong-Dutch Cr and E Fork Dow Prong-Dutch Cr highlighting the detailed nomenclature of the region's watersheds. Historical movement through the area is anchored by Dutch Creek Rd and Verona Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land established by the various forks and draws.
