2015 Map of Hay Canyon

About this map

Pawnee River meanders through the southern reaches of this High Plains landscape, marking a vital hydrological corridor in an area otherwise defined by its agricultural grid. This 2015 record illustrates the intersection of Finney County and Hodgeman County, where the topography transitions into the distinct Hay Canyon. The map reveals a highly structured section-line road network, anchored by routes like N Tom Reed Rd and N Byler Rd, which delineate the expansive farm and grazing tracts. Beyond the river, smaller drainage features such as Cottonwood Cr and the isolated Finney Lake punctuate the terrain, showing the essential water sources that have supported local land use for generations. The precise alignment of township boundaries, including t21s r28w and t22s r27w, provides a clear framework for researchers tracing specific family land holdings or early 21st-century property boundaries.
