2013 Map of Bethune

About this map

Bethune serves as a central point of this High Plains landscape, situated just north of the junction of Us-24 E and CO Hwy 40. This 2013 survey illustrates a highly organized section-line road network typical of Kit Carson County, where routes like CO Road Z and CO Road 37 define the agricultural grid. Despite the rigid geometry of the roads, the natural drainage patterns of Landsman Creek and Sevenmile Cr carve winding paths across the terrain, influencing the placement of local infrastructure. To the southwest, Hildebrandt Airport stands as a notable landmark of rural aviation, while the presence of Bonny Cr and Beaver Cr highlights the vital role of seasonal waterways in this prairie environment. The map captures the interface between modern transportation corridors and the persistent natural drainage systems that define this part of eastern Colorado.
