About this map

The Verdigris River snakes through the heart of Wilson County, Kansas, shaping the rural landscape near the town of Altoona. This survey documents the area's river crossings and road network in the early twenty-first century, featuring key access points such as the Guilford Bridge and Barnhill Bridge. The settlement of Guilford is positioned near the river's bend, while the grid of Altoona is clearly defined by landmarks like Main St and State St.

Several waterways drain the surrounding agricultural lands, including Crooked Cr, Little Cedar Cr, and Big Cedar Cr. A notable local thoroughfare, the Million Dollar Hwy, runs north-south through the center of the sheet, intersecting with rural routes like Filmore St and Ottawa Rd. These named roads and bridges provide a detailed view of the modern infrastructure supporting this longtime Kansas farming community.
