2022 Map of Hackberry Creek

About this map

Eldred serves as the primary point of interest in this section of Barber County, situated at the intersection of Sandy Creek Rd, Lasswell Rd, and Driftwood Rd. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Salt Fork Arkansas River in the southwestern quadrant, which receives drainage from numerous seasonal waterways including Big Sandy Cr and the namesake Hackberry Cr. The drainage patterns and topographic contours reveal a deeply dissected prairie landscape where traditional section-line roads, such as Prairie Dog Rd, adapt to the uneven terrain. This 2022 survey illustrates a sparsely populated agricultural region where the network of named rural routes, including Hackberry Rd and Shortline Rd, provides the essential framework for ranching and land management in south-central Kansas.
