2009 Map of Hay Hollow

About this map

The North Fork Saline River cuts through the southwestern corner of this Kansas landscape, defining the primary drainage for the surrounding prairie. This area of Trego County is characterized by a regular grid of section roads that facilitate movement across the agricultural terrain, including routes such as Co Rd 639 and Co Rd 406. The dendritic patterns of Happy Creek branch across the central and northern sections of the map, revealing the subtle relief and natural drainage ways that dictate the placement of farmsteads and field boundaries. This topographic study captures the essential infrastructure of the rural High Plains, where long stretches of road like 240 Ave and Co Rd 418 connect isolated homesteads to the wider regional network during the early 21st century.
