2010 Map of Hayrick Mound

About this map

Hayrick Mound rises as a prominent landmark in this prairie landscape along the Oklahoma-Kansas border. The topography is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of several tributaries, including Rock Creek, Brush Creek, and Big Creek, which carve gentle relief into the agricultural grid. This 2010 survey illustrates a region dominated by a systematic section-line road network, where rural life is anchored by family-named sites and burial grounds like Lain Cemetery and Plainview Cemetery. The southern reaches of the map show the headwaters of Tucker Creek and the East Fork Big Creek, where the land begins to slope toward the Oklahoma state line. The map serves as a precise record of rural infrastructure, detailing a web of county and local roads such as Co RD 4 and S 4270 RD that connect the isolated farmsteads of Labette County.
