2013 Map of Walks Camp Park

About this map

Walks Camp Park centers this portion of the High Plains in Lincoln County, where the arid landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainages of the Arikaree River and its northern branch, the N Fork Arikaree River. The map reveals a sparse, rural settlement pattern typical of the eastern Colorado plains, organized around a rigid grid of county roads. Genealogical interest is anchored by two distinct burial sites: the Walks Camp Cem to the west and the Walks Camp Lutheran Cem near the northern boundary. These landmarks, along with intermittent creek beds like Lickdab Cr and Currie Cr, trace the history of dryland ranching and community life in a region where water sources and family legacies were the primary drivers of settlement.
