2013 Map of Landsman Hill

About this map

Smoky Hill River meanders through the central corridor of this eastern Colorado landscape, defining the local drainage patterns and topography. The terrain is punctuated by distinctive natural landmarks such as Landsman Hill and the prominent Agate Mound to the south. Historically significant features like Ute Canyon offer a glimpse into the geographic markers used by early inhabitants and travelers in Cheyenne County. The map reveals a highly structured grid of rural infrastructure, dominated by a series of numbered section lines and lateral routes like Co Road DD and Co Road Z. This network illustrates the systematic land division of the High Plains, where remote ranching and agricultural access are facilitated by these critical county roads. The drainage of Cow Cr in the northern portion of the quadrangle further emphasizes the importance of sparse water resources in this arid environment.
