2009 Map of Bird City South SE
USGS Topo · Published 2009About this map
Beaver Creek and its tributary, Little Beaver Creek, carve a subtle drainage pattern across this section of the High Plains in Sherman County. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, with local transportation corridors like Co RD 27 and Co RD B following section lines through the agricultural terrain. This 2009 survey highlights a rural environment where history is preserved in small, localized sites rather than large urban centers. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for Sunnyside Cemetery in the northeast and Shermanville Cemetery to the south. The presence of Bursch Airport indicates the continued importance of general aviation in supporting the remote ranching and farming operations of western Kansas.
