2012 Map of Caldwell NW

About this map

The Chikaskia River meanders across this Sumner County landscape, defining the topography of an area dominated by agricultural sections and energy extraction. In the early 21st century, the region's economy is clearly marked by the Yarnell Oil and Gas Field, the Yarnell Northeast Oil and Gas Field, and the Walta Oil Field, showing the distribution of modern petroleum infrastructure amidst the farm grid. For those tracing local heritage, the Morris Center Cem serves as a key landmark in the southwestern portion of the map. Tributaries such as Spring Creek, Jordan Creek, and the East Branch Fall Creek create a complex drainage network that breaks the regularity of the section roads, such as S Bluff Rd and S Conway Springs Rd, illustrating how the prairie waterways dictate the placement of rural transit routes.
