2012 Map of Monument

About this map

Monument sits at the crossing of highway and rail lines in this Logan County landscape, serving as the primary hub for the surrounding agricultural plains. The town's layout is anchored by a local School, while the rest of the quadrangle is defined by a rigid grid of rural routes. These roads bear evocative names like Eagle Eye, Day Dream, and Broken Bow, reflecting a structured approach to land management in western Kansas. The terrain is subtly drained by several branches of Hackberry Creek, including the Middle Br Hackberry Cr, N Br Hackberry Cr, and S Br Hackberry Cr. In the southwest, Sixmile Cr meanders near the rural crossing of Vista. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring relationship between the high plains road network and the sparse watercourses that shape the region's geography.
