2015 Map of Bucklin SE

About this map

The agrarian plains of southwest Kansas define this region at the border of Ford and Kiowa Counties. This 2015 survey centers on the southeastern outskirts of Bucklin, where the landscape is organized by an extensive grid of section-line roads with evocative names like Whirlwind Rd, Windy Rd, and Wildfire Rd. The geography is dictated by the subtle drainage of the High Plains, most notably where Rattlesnake Creek meanders through the central portions of the map before the terrain shifts toward Middle Kiowa Cr in the southeast. These watercourses provide the only significant breaks in the uniform agricultural patterns. The survey documents a modern rural infrastructure, showing the persistence of traditional land divisions such as t28s r21w and t29s r20w alongside contemporary transportation routes like Warrior Rd and Upland Rd.
