2019 Map of Tuttle

About this map

The South Fork Republican River winds through the northwestern corner of this Kit Carson County landscape, carving a wide valley floor through the high plains. This 2019 survey documents a vast grid of section lines and gravel routes, including Co RD 31 and Co RD HH, which define the agricultural divisions of the Eastern Plains. The terrain is marked by the branching drainages of Spring Creek and the smaller Spring Cr to the north, which channel runoff from the surrounding plateaus. In the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, Dry Gulch cuts deep into the land, reflecting the persistent erosion patterns typical of this semi-arid region. The map reflects a landscape dedicated to large-scale ranching and dryland farming, where water sources like the Republican River remain the primary geographical anchors.
