Which township is located 2 tiers south and 3 ranges west of T1N R1W?

To determine which township is located 2 tiers south and 3 ranges west of T1N R1W, you begin by analyzing T1N R1W itself. This notation indicates that the township is in the first tier north (N) and the first range west (W) of the principal meridian.

When moving 2 tiers south from T1N, you would subtract 2 from the tier number. This takes you to T2S (the second tier south).

Next, moving 3 ranges west from R1W means subtracting 3 from the range number. Starting from R1W, you would go to R4W (the fourth range west).

Putting this together, starting from T1N R1W and moving 2 tiers south and 3 ranges west leads you to T2S R4W. This confirms that the answer C is indeed correct.
