About this map

The settlement of Modoc stands as the primary community in this portion of Scott County, positioned at the intersection of Modoc Ln and local county routes. This high plains landscape is defined by its agricultural grid and the seasonal drainage of Lion Cr, which carves through the northern sections of Township 18 South, Range 34 West. The presence of Modoc Cem north of the town site offers a localized point of interest for researchers tracing family history in the region.

Further south, the terrain becomes more varied around Rocky Draw, a prominent natural feature that interrupts the otherwise linear road network. The map reveals the systematic development of the area through its named thoroughfares, including North Dakota Rd and several alphabetically named roads like S Apache Rd and S Beaver Rd, reflecting the rural infrastructure that supports the local ranching and farming economy.
