About this map

Little Beaver Creek carves a winding path through the high plains of northwest Kansas on this 1981 survey, defining the rugged breaks between the flat upland plateaus. The landscape is primarily shaped by the transition between Cheyenne and Rawlins counties, where the terrain is marked by broad ridges like Bird City, Celia, and Rotate. While the area is largely rural, the presence of numerous Well sites and a Quarry in the eastern hills suggests a landscape tied closely to resource extraction and agricultural development. The intricate contour work reveals the complex drainage patterns feeding into the creek bed, a stark contrast to the straight section lines that organize the surrounding prairies.
