2013 Map of Holly NE

About this map

The Colorado-Kansas state line bisects this high plains landscape, where the agricultural economy relies on a network of irrigation systems. Water management is central to the area, evidenced by the Amity Canal and Hart Lateral which cut across the southern sections of the map. These man-made watercourses contrast with the natural drainage of Wild Horse Creek and Cheyenne Cr, which meander through the terrain. The border between Prowers County and Hamilton County is clearly defined, following Co Road 39. A grid of rural routes, including the interestingly named Co Road Railroad, provides access to the expansive sections of the Public Land Survey System, such as t021s r041w. This survey captures the rural character of the borderlands during the early twenty-first century.
