2012 Map of North of Sand Creek

About this map

Hamilton County's western Kansas high plains are defined by a meticulous grid of rural transport routes in this 2012 survey. The landscape is dominated by a systematic network of county roads, including the primary north-south corridors of Co Road Q and Co Road S, which intersect with east-west routes like Co Road 3 and Co Road 7. These section-line roads reveal the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the region's agricultural development. While the terrain is characterized by subtle drainage patterns, the human imprint is almost entirely defined by this rigid infrastructure, with Co Road V marking the eastern extent of the study area and Co Road 10 defining the southern boundary. This map provides a clear record of the modern rural infrastructure used to navigate the vast agricultural expanses north of Sand Creek.
