2016 Map of Towner

About this map

Towner sits at a critical intersection of state lines and county boundaries in the high plains of eastern Colorado. This 2016 survey reveals a landscape meticulously organized by the Public Land Survey System, where a rigid grid of rural roads like Co RD 70 and Co RD 78 defines the agricultural parcels. The map prominently features the Colorado Kansas border, reflecting the area's geographic identity as a gateway between the two states. Near the town center, the Towner Cem serves as a significant landmark for genealogical research, while the proximity of Kanco just across the line in Kansas underscores the cross-border connectivity of these prairie communities. The terrain is characterized by subtle elevation changes and the organized development of local infrastructure, including a network of numbered routes such as Co RD 1 and Co RD P that facilitate movement through this expansive borderland region.
