2022 Map of Beeler

About this map

Beeler sits as the central point of this high plains landscape, situated at the junction of Broadway and Co Rd 523. This small settlement, along with the nearby Beeler Cem, reflects the long-standing agricultural community in western Kansas. The drainage of S Fork Walnut Cr and its tributaries like Darr Cr define the local topography, carving shallow valleys through the expansive prairie. Historically significant routes like Old Blue Trail Rd and the Lane-Ness Rd delineate the township lines and county boundaries, showing the rigid grid system that organized this portion of Lane and Ness Counties. The presence of named landmarks such as Guzzlers Gulch provides a look into the local vernacular and the way early residents identified specific terrain features in a seemingly uniform environment.
