2017 Map of Plainview Colony

About this map

Plainview Colony stands as the primary settlement in this section of the northern Great Plains, situated just south of the boundary line between McPherson Co and Edmunds Co. The landscape is defined by the Jeffersonian grid of section lines, with gravel and paved routes such as 125th St and 358th Ave providing access to the surrounding agricultural tracts. To the southeast, Rosette Lake serves as a distinct hydrological landmark amidst a topography dotted with smaller wetlands and depressions common to the glaciated prairie. This 2017 survey reflects the enduring communal settlement patterns and the systematic road network, including Co Hwy 17 and Co Rd 16, that supports the region's rural economy.
