2015 Map of Council Grove

About this map

Council Grove serves as the focal point of this Kansas landscape, situated where the Neosho River and Elm Cr converge. The town's grid is well-defined by thoroughfares such as E Main St, N Mission St, and Market St, reflecting its historical importance as a river-centered trade hub. North of the settlement, the expansive waters of Council Grove Lake are fed by Munkers Creek, while the surrounding terrain is deeply incised by a network of drainage systems including Ritchey Cr, Big John Cr, and Little John Cr. This 2015 survey details the modern rural road network, with numbered routes like S 500 Rd and S 875 Rd crisscrossing the upland prairies of the t15s r8e and t16s r9e townships. The map captures the transition from the organized urban streets of the town site to the undulating creek valleys and ranch lands typical of the Flint Hills region.
