2009 Map of Covert

About this map

Covert serves as the quiet center of this agricultural landscape in Osborne County, situated along the winding path of Covert Creek. This 2009 survey reflects the enduring rural structure of North Central Kansas, where section-line roads like S 160th Ave and W 200th Dr connect a sparse network of homesteads and farms. For those tracing local history, the geography is anchored by several distinct burial sites, including Bristow Cemetery in the northeast and Cedar Bluff Cemetery in the southwest, each marking the heritage of the surrounding townships. The terrain is defined by the drainage basins of Kill Creek and East Kill Creek, leading toward the prominent elevation of Sand Mound near the southern boundary. This map captures the intersection of natural hydrology and the rectilinear grid of Kansas prairie life.
