2013 Map of Marks Butte

About this map

Sunrise School stands as a focal point in this portion of northeastern Colorado, situated in a landscape defined by the regular geometry of the Public Land Survey System. The area is characterized by an extensive network of rural routes, including Co Road 14 and Co-59, which facilitate movement across the agricultural terrain. The map captures the agricultural footprint of the early 21st century, punctuated by local landmarks like the Price Ranch and the distinct topographic rise of Marks Butte in the eastern section. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of Sedgwick County, where section lines and county roads dictate the pattern of settlement and land use, preserving a record of the community infrastructure and named family holdings that have shaped the high plains.
