About this map

The border of Cheyenne Co and Kiowa Co divides this rural Colorado landscape, defined by a rigid grid of agricultural roads and section lines. Surveyed in the early twenty-first century, the area is characterized by vast open country where movement is dictated by a network of county thoroughfares such as Co Rd 31 and Co Rd 34. The topography is subtle, with gradual elevation changes marked by contour lines that reveal the gentle slopes of the High Plains. This map documents a sparsely populated region where land management and township boundaries, including t17s r49w and t18s r50w, form the primary organizational structure of the territory. The absence of traditional town centers highlights the isolation of these eastern Colorado counties, where connectivity relies on long stretches of gravel like Co Rd Z and Co Rd W.
