About this map

Allendorph anchors the northern reaches of this Flint Hills landscape, where the intricate drainage of Mill Creek and its many branches defines the terrain. The hydrological importance of the region is evident in the Alma City Reservoir, held by the Alma City Dam to the east. The rural character of the area is underscored by historical local identifiers like Poor Farm Rd and Ridge Rd, which trace the higher elevations between the creek valleys.

Evidence of local industry and community history is found at the Davis Ranch Oil Field in the south and the Fairview Cemetery near the headwaters of Mill Creek. The landscape is etched with names that reflect its settlement and agricultural roots, including Spring Creek, West Branch Mill Creek, and Illinois Creek. These waterways and their surrounding sections offer a clear picture of the land-use patterns in Wabaunsee County during the early twenty-first century.
