2012 Map of Irish Flats NE

About this map

Crooked Cr and its tributaries define the drainage patterns of this Meade County landscape, where the High Plains transition into the broken terrain of the Cimarron River watershed. The geography is marked by a rigorous section-line road grid, from 17 RD to 23 RD, which dictates the movement of people and commerce across this agricultural expanse. The intricate branching of Sand Cr and Remuda Cr across the eastern half of the map illustrates the natural erosion patterns that have shaped the local topography over millennia. While the area remains predominantly rural and open, the precise alignment of roads like V RD and X RD reflects the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System in organizing the Kansas frontier.
