2011 Map of Monument Hill

About this map

Beezley Hills dominate the topography of this Grant County landscape, showing the dramatic elevation changes and geological formations characteristic of the region. The ridge is punctuated by Mounment Hill, while the lower elevations are defined by a strictly organized grid of local transit routes such as Adams Rd N and Martin Rd NW. The contrast between the steep, unpopulated terrain of the hills and the precisely surveyed sections of the surrounding flats reflects the region's agricultural and land-use history. Significant thoroughfares like Baird Springs Rd and Overen Rd cut through the northern half of the quadrangle, providing access across the rising ground. This 2011 survey illustrates the intersection of natural basaltic landforms and the systematic human imposition of the Public Land Survey System.
