2015 Map of East Kiowa Creek South

About this map

Kiowa Creek and its many branches define the drainage patterns of this rural Comanche County landscape in the mid-2010s. The map captures a sophisticated network of waterways including E Kiowa Creek, W Kiowa Creek, and Middle Kiowa Creek, which carve through the terrain alongside Wiggins Creek and Buzzard Creek. This area is characterized by a strict section-line road grid, with routes such as Ave D and CM Rd 9 providing access to the open countryside. The sparse distribution of buildings and the dominance of the township and range system, specifically t31s r20w and t31s r19w, highlight the persistent agricultural and ranching character of south-central Kansas. Local researchers can trace the precise boundaries of these land sections and the intermittent stream beds that have historically dictated land use in the region.
