2013 Map of Shaw

About this map

Shaw serves as a central point of reference in this High Plains landscape, situated along the county line where Washington Co and Lincoln Co meet. The area is characterized by a sprawling grid of rural infrastructure, defined by an extensive network of roads such as Co Road 4C and Co Hwy-O. This section of the eastern plains is bisected by the meandering course of the North Fork Arikaree River, which winds eastward through the heart of the territory. To the north, Gordon Creek provides further drainage across the open terrain. The survey captures the precision of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t005s r053w and t006s r053w organizing the vast agricultural and ranching parcels that dominate the local economy and geography during this period.
