2012 Map of Ashland

About this map

Ashland serves as the focal point of this southwestern Kansas landscape, situated where the high plains begin to break into a network of seasonal creek drainages. The town's grid is anchored by essential civic landmarks including the Po and the Clark County Fairgrounds, reflecting its role as a regional agricultural and administrative hub. To the north, the Ashland Oil Field indicates the importance of mineral extraction in the local economy, while Mount Casino rises above the surrounding terrain near the headwaters of Casino Cr. The drainage patterns are complex, defined by the convergence of the W Br Bear Cr and E Br Bear Cr into Bear Cr, alongside other waterways like Redhole Cr and Little Sandy Cr. Transportation and infrastructure are represented by the Harold Krier Field Airport and the Ashland Wastewater Treatment Facility on the eastern edge of the settlement.
