2018 Map of Bird City North

About this map

Bird City sits at the southern edge of this High Plains landscape, serving as a hub for the surrounding agricultural sections of Cheyenne County. The town site is laid out on a grid including Bird Ave, Rich Ave, and Demick Ave, just north of where State Hwy 161 intersects the local section roads. North of the primary settlement, the terrain is defined by the drainage of Big Timber Cr, which carves a path through the prairie alongside significant landforms like Sawyer Canyon and Wolfe Canyon. The presence of the Bird City Cem north of the main town site offers a specific point of interest for genealogists tracking early families in this corner of Kansas. The map's detail of the township and range system, including t2s r38w and t2s r37w, illustrates the orderly division of the land that has dictated settlement and farming patterns for generations.
