About this map

The boundary between Hodgeman Co and Ford Co cuts through this rural Kansas landscape, where the High Plains terrain is etched by drainage networks. To the north, the seat of Hodgeman County, Jetmore, serves as the primary hub of activity, supported by the Jetmore Municipal Airport. The landscape transitions from the grid-aligned agricultural sections of the northern townships into the more dissected breaks of the south, where Saw Log Cr and Duck Cr have carved intricate topography into the plains. Notable elevations like Pullers Peak rise above the surrounding creek beds, offering distinct landmarks in a region defined by its wide-reaching drainage system and sparse, utilitarian road network. This survey documents the intersection of precise section-line roads and the winding natural paths of Elm Cr and other waterways that dictate the local geography.
