2015 Map of Beeler

About this map

Beeler serves as the central point of this West-Central Kansas landscape, situated where the high plains meet the drainage of the S Fork Walnut Cr. The settlement is small, defined by a grid including Broadway and proximity to the Beeler Cem. The surrounding terrain in Ness and Lane counties is marked by the gradual erosion patterns of Darr Cr and the aptly named Guzzlers Gulch. Transportation routes follow the township and range lines typical of the region, though the naming of Old Blue Trail Rd suggests a connection to older western transit corridors that predated modern highway systems. This 2015 survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and ranching layout of the area, where watercourses like the S Fork Walnut Cr remain the primary geographical features influencing the placement of roads and homesteads.
