About this map

Cedar Vale occupies the northeastern corner of this landscape, serving as a focal point for the surrounding Chautauqua County rangeland and creek bottoms. The town is marked by its grid of streets including Caney St and Dale St, while the local Cedar Vale Cemetery and the northern Cedar Creek Cemetery provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. To the west, the small settlement of Taussig sits along the roadway, flanked by a network of drainage basins.

The terrain is defined by a dense system of waterways that flow through the plains, including Cedar Creek, Rock Creek, and Spring Creek. These natural features, alongside numerous smaller tributaries like Donahue Creek and Whartenby Creek, shaped the original settlement patterns and road placements such as W County Line Rd and Frontier Rd. The inclusion of Mills Ranch Airport north of town highlights the continued importance of private aviation in managing these expansive ranching lands.
