2013 Map of Virginia Dale

About this map

Virginia Dale sits at the heart of this landscape along the border of Colorado and Wyoming, serving as a historic junction where the Overland Trail Stage Station Cem recalls the era of frontier travel. The terrain is defined by dramatic outcrops such as Lovers Leap and Table Mountain, while the southern reaches are dominated by the Halligan Reservoir along the North Fork Cache La Poudre River. Local heritage is deeply rooted in family ranching and spiritual life, evidenced by the presence of Logan Ranch, the Abbey of Saint Walburga, and the Virginia Dale Community Church. Multiple small burial sites, including the Murchland Family Cem and Boyd Family Cem, are scattered throughout the hills, providing a detailed map for genealogists tracing the early settlers of Larimer County. The drainage patterns of Deadman Creek and Dale Creek further illustrate the geography of this high-country transition.
