About this map

North Fork Smoky Hill River and its surrounding drainage systems define this section of the High Plains, where the water table and surface flow dictate the layout of the land. The landscape is marked by the Sherman County State Lake Dam, a significant local hydrological modification within the watershed. This 2009 survey reveals the precision of the modern section-line road network, including routes such as Co RD 54 and Co RD 52, which provide access to the expansive agricultural plots and ranchlands. In the southwestern corner, the Fairview Cemetery stands as a quiet focal point for local genealogy and history, situated near Co RD 12. Further south, the meandering path of North Fork Lake Creek cuts through the territory, illustrating the natural watercourses that have shaped the rural development of Wallace and Sherman counties.
