2021 Map of Burdette

About this map

Burdette serves as the central community in this rural Hand County landscape, where the prairie is defined by a grid of section-line roads and the winding paths of several seasonal waterways. The settlement's history is anchored by the Burdette Cem, while the Sunbeam Cem to the southwest provides further evidence of early family homesteads and pioneer communities. The terrain is shaped by the drainage of Wolf Cr, which meanders across the central and southern portions of the sheet, joined by smaller tributaries including Little Turtle Cr, Slaefer Cr, and Lost Cr. This mapping from the early twenty-first century documents the persistent agricultural character of the region, where transportation is dictated by numbered routes like Co Rd 13 and 370th Ave, maintaining a layout that has changed little since the initial land surveys.
