About this map

Beaver Cr and its tributaries define the rolling landscape of this northwestern Kansas county seat, where the local economy and community life revolve around the town of Atwood. The layout of the town is anchored by the Rawlins County Courthouse and a grid of streets including Main St and State St, reflecting a well-established prairie center. Significant local infrastructure is evident in the Atwood-Rawlins County Airport to the north and the presence of both N Railroad Ave and S Railroad Ave, tracing the historical importance of rail transport in the High Plains.

Outlying areas such as Blakeman and North Atwood sit near the confluence of Little Beaver Cr and the main creek branch, while Atwood Lake serves as a prominent water feature just east of the central district. Genealogy and local history are represented by the Atwood Fairview Cem and Mount Calvary Cem, providing clear points of reference for researchers tracing family roots in this rural community.
