About this map

Kit Carson County's agricultural landscape is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and gravel thoroughfares, as documented in this 2010 U.S. Geological Survey study. The terrain is dominated by high-plains geography, where the orderly arrangement of County Rd-1 and County Rd-10 facilitates movement across a vast expanse of farm and ranch land. Notable corridors like County Hwy RR and County Road KK serve as the primary arteries connecting these isolated homesteads and work sites. The mapping of these routes, from County Road MM to County Road NN, illustrates the enduring importance of the Jeffersonian survey system in shaping the development and navigation of eastern Colorado's rural interior. This edition provides a precise view of the local infrastructure before subsequent decades of change, highlighting the essential network of named county roads that sustain the region's economy.
