2015 Map of Bogue NW

About this map

S Fork Solomon River defines the southern reach of this Kansas landscape, where the watercourse and its tributaries like Spring Cr have carved the terrain into a network of draws and ridges. This mid-2010s survey reveals a rural landscape organized by a strict section-line road grid, characteristic of the High Plains. Tucked into these sections are small, isolated landmarks of local heritage, including Mount Olive Cem and McFarland Cem, which serve as physical links to the families who settled this portion of Graham County. Small bodies of water like Stevensons Lake dot the western sections, while the thoroughfares, such as Old Bogue Rd, connect these remote homesteads to the wider region. The map captures a moment of modern agricultural life, where vast open spaces are punctuated only by these quiet commemorative sites and intermittent drainage systems.
