About this map

The high plains of Western Kansas meet at the intersection of four counties in this 2022 survey. This agricultural landscape is defined by the corners of Hamilton, Stanton, Kearny, and Grant counties. The intermittent drainage of Wolf Cr meanders across the eastern half of the map, carving subtle relief into the predominantly flat terrain.

A strictly gridded network of section roads, including the significant north-south thoroughfare of Big Bow Grade and its northern extension N Big Bow Grade, facilitates the region's ranching and farming operations. The map details the Township and Range system characteristic of the Midwest, showing the transition between Township 26 South, Range 39 West and surrounding blocks. While primarily open country, the map identifies small clusters of structures and rural infrastructure linked by routes like Co Rd X and N Rd D.
