About this map

Sugar Loaf Hill rises above a glaciated landscape defined by seasonal wetlands and a network of ephemeral drainage basins in this contemporary survey of the Faulk and Hand County border. The terrain is characterized by its agricultural grid, where section lines are marked by roads like Co Rd 12 and 350th Ave, cutting through a topography of prairie potholes and draws. Water features are the primary landmarks, ranging from the localized Huss Spring to larger basins such as Vogeler Lake and Matter Lake. The presence of Vogeler Draw and creeks like Gooder Cr and Bryant Cr illustrate the subtle hydrology that dictates land use in this rural interior. This map provides a precise view of the modern rural infrastructure, showing how township lines and range divisions continue to organize the sparsely populated Great Plains landscape.
