About this map

The Smoky Hill River winds across the high plains of the Colorado-Kansas state line, defining the southern portion of this landscape. This 2019 survey documents a sparsely populated agricultural and ranching region where the terrain is carved by the Big Timber Creek and Willow Cr drainages. The map reveals the rigid geometry of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t13s r42w and t12s r41w organizing the vast open sections.

Local transportation is dominated by a grid of rural roads, including Tumbleweed Rd, Outpost Rd, and Nighthawk Rd. These routes, along with county designations such as Co Rd 58, provide the primary infrastructure for the scattered farmsteads and ranches along the Cheyenne and Wallace County line. The map captures the quiet, expansive nature of the High Plains before the further consolidation of modern agriculture.
