2013 Map of Platner

About this map

Platner serves as the central point of this High Plains landscape, situated along the primary east-west corridor of Us-34 E. The map reveals a highly structured agricultural grid, defined by a network of county roads such as CO Road JJ and CO Road LL that segment the Colorado prairie into precise sections. This geometric organization is occasionally interrupted by the wandering path of Surveyor Creek, which meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle. In the northwestern corner, Gebauer Airport provides a localized landmark for regional aviation. The map details a transition from the systematic road grid to the natural drainage patterns of the creek, illustrating how modern transportation and land management have adapted to the subtle relief of the Washington County terrain.
