The Nebraska Kansas state line bisects this landscape, marking the intersection of Hitchcock Co and Rawlins Co. The terrain is defined by the drainage of N Fork Driftwood Cr, which carves several notable geological features into the prairie. Deep incisions like Black Canyon, Wildhorse Canyon, and Jones Canyon create a complex topography that breaks the traditional grid of the Great Plains. A series of section-line roads, including Road 705 and 6th Ave, navigate the high ground between these canyons. This 2014 survey captures the persistence of the early township and range system, showing how modern transportation routes still adhere to the geometric boundaries established during the initial settlement of the region.
