2012 Map of Glade SW

About this map

Plainview Cem serves as a quiet landmark in this rural portion of Phillips County, where the landscape is defined by the subtle drainage patterns of Bow Cr and Ash Cr. The map reveals a strictly organized section-line road network, common across the Kansas plains, which facilitates travel between remote farmsteads and agricultural holdings. Named routes like W Big Bear Ln and W Cozy Cove Rd suggest modern residential or recreational development integrated into the traditional grid of numerical and alphabetical roads such as 7 Rd and E Rd. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring nature of the Great Plains' rural infrastructure, preserving the exact locations of burial grounds and watercourses that have served local families for generations.
