2016 Map of Mount Sunflower NW
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The N Fork Smoky Hill River and its tributaries define the hydrology of this High Plains landscape in eastern Colorado. This corner of Kit Carson County is mapped near the Kansas border, where the terrain is marked by the shifting seasonal beds of Middle Beaver Cr and the winding course of Sandy Cr. The survey illustrates a rigid grid of rural infrastructure, with county roads such as Co RD 51 and Co RD 55 delineating the square-mile sections of the Public Land Survey System. This agricultural grid, ranging from t9s r42w down to t11s r43w, reveals the deep imprint of land division on the prairie, where watercourses like the N Fork Smoky Hill River provide the only natural deviation from the straight-line geography of the regional road network.
