Colfax and the neighboring settlement of Anchor anchor this study of north-central Illinois, where the section-line road grid organizes a landscape defined by drainage and agriculture. The Mackinaw River winds eastward across the center of the sheet, joined by tributaries like Colfax Cr and Henline Cr. This network of waterways creates subtle relief in the otherwise steady elevation of the Illinois prairie.
