2012 Map of Missler

About this map

The settlement of Missler sits at the center of this 2012 study of rural Meade County, where the high plains landscape is defined by a precise grid of section-line roads and the winding path of Spring Cr. This environment illustrates the transition between upland prairie and the drainage systems of the southern plains, with Hart Draw cutting through the terrain to the east of the main settlement. Civil aviation is represented by Jenkinson Airport in the northern portion of the map, serving as a landmark in an area otherwise dedicated to expansive agricultural use. To the southeast, Big Springs provides a rare concentrated water feature in this arid landscape. The road network, including the eponymous Missler Rd, follows a strict Cartesian layout typical of the American West, highlighting how modern infrastructure maintains the historical township and range system.
