About this map

Blue Mtn rises above the rural landscape of Phillips County, anchoring a terrain defined by the Public Land Survey System's rigid grid. This 2015 survey reveals a disciplined agricultural pattern where section-line roads such as W Buffalo Rd and W Granite Rd bisect the high plains. The drainage network provides a natural contrast to this geometry, with the headwaters of W Crow Cr, E Big Cr, and Spring Cr carving subtle relief across the township blocks of t1s r18w and t1s r17w.

The presence of Brushy Draw and the winding course of Plotner Cr indicate the persistent role of water management in this high-plains environment. Researchers will find the map captures the late-modern intersection of ancestral homestead boundaries and contemporary infrastructure, where named local routes like E Dakota Rd continue to serve as the primary conduits between isolated farmsteads and distant markets.
