2009 Map of Kanona

About this map

Kanona serves as the quiet anchor of this Decatur County landscape, a rural settlement defined by its grid of country roads and the winding paths of local waterways. The topography is shaped by the drainage patterns of Sappa Creek, which meanders through the northwest, and Cotton Creek, flowing southward across the central plains. Just north of the town center, Kanona Cemetery stands as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians, marking the legacy of the area's early farming families. The map illustrates a high-plains environment where transportation remains tied to the sectional grid, including Co RD 495 and Co RD 491, while Route 36 provides the main east-west artery through this agricultural region. Notable natural features like Rock Draw further distinguish the subtle relief of the High Plains terrain.
