2010 Map of Yuma NE

About this map

The High Plains of northeast Colorado are defined here by a precise, rhythmic grid of agricultural transport routes established by the County Rd 46 and County Rd M corridors. This landscape in Yuma County reflects the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System, where section lines dictate the placement of roads such as County Rd 44 and County Rd P. While the terrain appears largely open, the network of gravel and improved roads including County Rd 42 and County Rd 40 reveals a highly organized approach to rural land management. The systematic numbering of routes like County Rd N 5/10 suggests the careful division of farmsteads and ranch land at the turn of the 21st century, illustrating how human geography and infrastructure have adapted to the expansive, flat horizons of the American West.
