2018 Map of Bluff City West

About this map

Bluff City sits on the eastern edge of this Harper County landscape, where the agricultural grid of south-central Kansas meets a complex network of prairie waterways. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Bluff Cr, which cuts centrally across the quadrangle, fed by tributaries including Silver Cr and Wildcat Creek. To the northwest, the small settlement of Hawk serves as a local landmark within a township system of section-line roads like Berlin Rd and SE 40 Rd. An interesting aviation detail is found at Wilcox Field, located south of the main creek. The map illustrates the 2018 state of land use in this region, where the rigid geometry of county roads contrasts with the wandering paths of Pond Cr and Kook Cr.
