2012 Map of Rock River

About this map

Rock River serves as the primary hub in this High Plains landscape, where residential streets like Lewis Ave and Avenue D meet the winding course of the river itself. The settlement is positioned along the transit corridor of Old State Hwy 13, which parallels the modern highway route. To the southeast, the small settlement of Harper sits near the base of Lower Pine Ridge, a significant geological transition that separates the river valley from the elevated flats. The hydrology of the area is defined by seasonal and perennial water sources, including the drainage of Coalbank Cr into the Coalbank Reservoir and the isolated Rainey Lake to the south. This survey illustrates the sparse, ranching-oriented grid of Albany County, where long-distance roads such as Schultz Rd and Reed connect isolated family landmarks and water rights across the open range.
