2022 Map of Marks Butte

About this map

Marks Butte rises above the high plains of northeastern Colorado, serving as the primary topographic landmark in this section of Sedgwick County. This 2022 survey illustrates a landscape defined by the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System, where agriculture and cattle ranching are supported by a rectilinear network of maintained routes. The map detail highlights how section lines dictate modern travel, with roads such as Co Rd 11 and Co Rd 14 carving the prairie into distinct townships. This corner of the state, including portions of t10n r47w and t10n r46w, remains a portrait of rural endurance where the terrain is marked more by the legacy of land claims and county planning than by dense settlement.
