2012 Map of Iron Mountain

About this map

Iron Mountain rises above the rolling drainage basin of the central Kansas prairie, serving as a primary landmark in this rural landscape. The topography is defined by the branching waters of the Medicine Lodge River, including the N Br Medicine Lodge River and the S Br Medicine Lodge River. These waterways, along with tributaries like Otter Cr and Thompson Cr, illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have dictated land use and property boundaries in Kiowa County for generations. A sparse network of rural routes, including Coline Rd and 70th Rd, provides access across the open terrain. The map captures the quiet, agrarian character of the region, where the intersection of water and land remains the most prominent feature of the local geography.
