About this map

The high plains of Phillips County are defined by a grid of rural roads and the meandering drainage of Frenchman Creek. This 2013 survey of the southeastern quadrant of the Haxtun area reveals an agricultural landscape structured by section lines, including CO Road 26 and CO Road 17. Water is a critical element in this semi-arid environment, with the North Fork Frenchman Creek and South Fork Frenchman Creek cutting across the northern reaches, while Sandy Creek flows through the southern sections.

Local history is anchored by the Jarvis Cem in the southeastern corner, a primary landmark for genealogists researching families from the surrounding townships. The northern portion of the map includes the Haxtun Municipal Airport and the Fuesz Reservoir, illustrating the modern infrastructure supporting this prairie community. The terrain remains largely open, with gradual elevation changes marked by subtle contouring around the various forks of Frenchman Creek.
