About this map

Carson serves as the central hub of this Grant County landscape, where the town's street grid is anchored by S Main St and Railroad Ave. The surrounding plains are marked by significant topographic rises and buttes, most notably Carson Hill situated just northeast of the town center. To the south, Circle Buttes dominates the lower quadrant, while Cookout Butte stands to the east, providing clear landmarks across the prairie.

For those tracing local history or family roots, the map identifies two distinct burial sites: Emmaus Congregational Cem north of the main settlement and Community Cem located further south along the eastern border of Section 36. The transportation network is defined by a precise grid of rural roads, such as 68th St SW, and the vertical corridor of Hwy 2, which connects the region's agricultural holdings to the town site.
