2022 Map of Blue Rapids SW

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Big Blue River meanders through the southeastern corner of this Kansas landscape, where the borders of Marshall, Riley, and Pottawatomie counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Swede Cr, Little Swede Cr, and Game Fork, which carve through the uplands toward the river valley. Significant for genealogical research, the area is home to several well-preserved rural burial grounds, such as Saint Wenceslaus Cem near the northern county line and Bellegarde Cem to the south. The presence of Shannon Creek Res and the prominent Christenson Hill provide clear markers for the local topography. This region maintains a traditional section-line road grid, with routes like Parallel Rd and Center Hill Rd providing access to the various family-named ravines and creek bottoms that have shaped local settlement patterns for generations.
