2010 Map of Haswell NE

About this map

Salt Lake sits at the eastern edge of this Kiowa County landscape, a distinctive hydrologic feature in a region defined by its rigid section-line organization. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a sparse, agricultural infrastructure dominated by a vast grid of gravel and dirt routes. State Highway 96 cuts diagonally across the northern portion of the map, providing the primary arterial connection through the plains. The landscape is segmented by a precise network of local thoroughfares, including County Road P, County Rd 27, and County Road M. These roads follow the township and range lines, reflecting the legacy of the Public Land Survey System that shaped the development of eastern Colorado. This map serves as a clear record of land use and transportation during the early 21st century, showing how the local road system accommodates the natural depressions and saline basins of the high plains.
