2018 Map of Dighton SE

About this map

The rolling plains of western Kansas are defined by seasonal drainage patterns and a geometric grid of county roads in this survey of the Dighton SE quadrangle. The northern landscape is carved by the ephemeral Spring Cr, while the southern reaches are marked by the winding path of Hackberry Cr. The topography reveals the transition across the Lane Co Finney Co line, where the high prairie begins to dip toward these creek beds. Of particular interest for genealogists and local historians is the isolated Thomas Cem located in the northeast, a quiet landmark amidst the vast section lines. The road network, with uniquely named routes such as Turkey Red and Quantum, illustrates the systematic organization of the land into townships like t20s r27w.
