2009 Map of Colby SE

About this map

The North Fork Solomon River and South Fork Solomon River define the wide, drainage-cut plains southeast of Colby. This 2009 survey shows a landscape structured by a strict section-line road grid, including Co Rd 16, Co Rd 21, and Co Rd L. In the northern part of the map, residential and municipal expansion is visible through named streets like Zelfer Ave, Dylan Dr, and White Ave, contrasting with the open agricultural sections to the south. The convergence of Willow St and S Range indicates the edge of local development as the town footprint meets the Kansas prairie. These waterways and gravel roads provide a clear look at Thomas County's land use and hydrology at the end of the first decade of the 2000s.
