About this map

The High Plains borderlands are defined here by a systematic grid of section lines and the intermittent drainage of White Woman Cr. This specific quadrant of the High Plains captures the intersection of three counties and the state line between Colorado and Kansas. The landscape is etched by the S Fork White Woman Cr, which meanders through a terrain otherwise dominated by the rigid geometry of the Public Land Survey System. Local transport is facilitated by a network of county roads, including Co Rd 78 and Co Rd 3, which serve as the primary conduits between isolated homesteads and larger agricultural centers. The demarcation of boundaries such as the Cheyenne County and Kiowa County line underscores the administrative organization of this expansive, open environment during the early 21st century.
