2019 Map of Platner

About this map

Platner sits along a primary east-west corridor in Washington County, defining the central landscape of this High Plains survey. The terrain is characterized by the meandering path of Surveyor Creek, which cuts through the southern half of the quadrangle, occasionally labeled as Surveyor Cr. The map reveals a highly structured agricultural grid, with a dense network of local roads such as Co RD 42 and Co RD HH that partition the land into regular sections. These roads, including Co Rd NN and Co RD LL, reflect the systematic settlement patterns common to eastern Colorado, where transportation follows the township and range boundaries of t3n r51w and t2n r50w. The convergence of these routes near the settlement of Platner underscores its role as a local focal point within the surrounding ranching and farming operations.
