2016 Map of Wray NW

About this map

High plains terrain and agricultural boundaries define this section of Yuma County, Colorado. The landscape is organized by a geometric grid of rural routes, including Co Rd 45, Co Rd 43, and Co Rd 42, which trace the section lines typical of the Public Land Survey System. A legacy of the region's ranching heritage is preserved in the naming of the Cattle Trl, which cuts across the established grid in the southeastern quadrant. This survey reflects the modern agricultural configuration of the High Plains, where townships like t3n r43w and t2n r44w are partitioned into vast tracts. The map is a record of the precise road network required to navigate this portion of the Colorado backcountry, connecting remote farmsteads via north-south connectors such as Co Rd JJ and Co Rd LL.
