2015 Map of Beeler SE

About this map

The dry drainage systems of Guzzlers Gulch and its South Fork dominate this high plains landscape on the border of Ness and Hodgeman counties. In this transition between the High Plains and the Smoky Hills, the topography is defined by subtle elevation changes and a rigid grid of section-line roads, such as Co Rd 525 and W 40 Rd. The map illustrates a strictly rural environment, showing the intersection of Ness and Hodgeman County lines. Small intermittent watercourses like Plum Cr trace the floor of these shallow valleys, which provided essential drainage for ranching and dryland farming operations. This 2015 survey reflects the enduring homestead-era land divisions, marked by township and range identifiers like t20s r25w, where modern county roads still follow the original boundaries established by the Public Land Survey System.
