2021 Map of Trenton SW

About this map

Dahnke Reservoir sits at the center of this 2021 study, serving as a primary water feature in a landscape defined by its agricultural grid. The terrain straddles the High Plains border, with the Nebraska Kansas state line and the divide between Hitchcock Co and Rawlins Co crossing the southern portion of the sheet. The area is dominated by a systematic network of section roads including Veterans Memorial Hwy, 9th Ave, and Rd Ee. This modern survey illustrates the persistent importance of water management and transportation infrastructure in a sparsely populated ranching and farming region. The land is organized through the Public Land Survey System, as shown by the townships t1n r35w and t1n r34w, which delineate the expansive, open character of the Nebraska-Kansas borderlands.
