I came up CO 83 from the Elbert County HPs to Parker, went east on Main Street which becomes E Mainstreet (That is really what the sign says.), which becomes Parker Road. At Delbert Street, turn north (left) until County Line Road, which is just to the east of the southern point.

With that said, there is an immense development going in here and the southern point no longer dwells with us in its previous glory. The picture on page 34 of the Mitchler and Covill book shows life as it no longer is.

The small point across from Otero Road is a touch and go. It will probably go away when the development is finished and the road gets widened, so this county may require a reevaluation at some point.
