2017 Map of Parks Hills

About this map

Parks Hills and the surrounding high ground of Saddle Buttes define this section of the Sioux and Grant County borderlands. The landscape is carved by a dendritic drainage network including Cedar Cr, which meanders along the southern boundary, and the northern reaches of Whitmore Cr. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a sparse, primarily agricultural and rangeland environment, where the section-line road grid is the primary human imprint. Key arteries like W Morristown Rd and E Morristown Rd provide access through the varying elevations near Colville Hill, showing a region where terrain and hydrology dictate the placement of local infrastructure. The map serves as a detailed record of water courses such as Crooked Cr and Hay Cr as they appeared in the mid-2010s.
