2010 Map of Wagon Bed Spring

About this map

The Cimarron River winds through this section of Grant County, creating a riparian corridor that breaks the geometric regularity of the surrounding agricultural landscape. This 2010 survey shows a region defined by an extensive grid of section-line roads, such as Co Rd 18 and Co Rd 19, which facilitate the move of cattle and crops across the high plains. A notable local landmark for genealogists and historians is the Zionville Cemetery, located just west of S Wagonbed Springs Rd. The map also captures the path of S Rd L and Co Rd 20, illustrating the modern infrastructure that connects these rural farmsteads. The lack of concentrated urban development highlights the area's continued reliance on large-scale land use near the historic river basin.
