2009 Map of Saint Francis SW

About this map

Salem Evangelical Cemetery serves as a significant local landmark in this corner of Cheyenne County, reflecting the deep-rooted rural settlement patterns of the High Plains. The landscape is primarily defined by a geometric grid of section roads, including Co Rd V and Co Rd 5, which facilitate access across the expansive agricultural terrain. The natural drainage of Cherry Creek cuts across this systematic survey, providing a rare serpentine element to the otherwise linear topography. In the southern portion of the map, Us Hwy 36 provides the primary east-west corridor, connecting this remote region to the wider state network. This 2009 survey highlights the enduring intersection of early township planning and the persistent natural watercourses that have dictated land use for generations.
