2018 Map of Ellsworth

About this map

Ellsworth and its neighboring settlement of Kanopolis anchor this central Kansas landscape where the Smoky Hill River winds through the prairie. The town site of Ellsworth is laid out with a grid of named streets including Kunkle Dr and Novak St, while the surrounding terrain is defined by a series of tributary drainages such as Oak Cr, Oxide Cr, and Spring Cr. Several burial grounds are documented across the quadrangle, including the Ellsworth Memorial Cem, the historic Bickerdyke Cem, and the Kanopolis Cem to the east. The presence of the Ellsworth Municipal Airport and the route of Old Hwy 40 illustrate the transportation development in this part of Ellsworth County. Further south, the landscape opens into sections marked by Mud Cr, Ash Cr, and Skunk Cr, showing the agricultural divisions of the High Plains.
