2009 Map of Dighton SW

About this map

Hackberry Creek and Spring Creek meander across this portion of the High Plains, carving subtle drainage patterns into the agricultural grid of northern Finney County. The landscape is defined by the intersection of section-line roads and the prominent north-south corridor of State Hwy 23, which serves as the primary artery through this sparsely settled prairie region. The Lane-Finney Co Line marks the northern boundary of the map, where the surveyed grid continues into neighboring Lane County. Unlike more densely populated regions, the map reveals a land organized almost entirely for large-scale ranching and farming, with distinctive local thoroughfares like Mustang Rd and Longhorn Rd connecting the isolated farmsteads and rangelands of Western Kansas.
