2021 Map of Hastings NW

About this map

Hastings expands northward into the agricultural plains of Adams County on this recent survey, showing the transition from suburban development to the traditional section-line road network. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and drainage of the W Fork Big Blue River and its tributaries like Flat Cr and Flint Cr. To the north, the small community of Rosedale and its associated Rosedale Cem represent the rural backbone of the region, anchored by decades of farming history. Significant modern infrastructure is present, including the Tom Osborne Expy and the residential growth near Sunset Memorial Gardens Cem. The presence of the Kernan Lagoon offers a distinct hydrologic feature in a territory largely dominated by vast fields and a meticulous grid of county roads.
