2011 Map of Culbertson

About this map

Culbertson serves as the focal point of this Hitchcock County survey, situated at the strategic confluence of Frenchman Creek and the Republican River. The settlement pattern is defined by a grid of local thoroughfares including Kleven Ave and Christy Ave, with the Culbertson Post Office anchoring the town center. The surrounding landscape reveals a sophisticated irrigation and water management network essential for High Plains agriculture, dominated by a series of man-made waterways. Significant infrastructure such as the Culbertson Canal, Upper Meeker Canal, and Driftwood Canal traverse the prairie. These canals are supported by localized storage systems including Kugler Reservoir and Korell Reservoir, each held by namesake structures like Kugler Dam and Korell Dam, illustrating the engineered nature of this river valley.
