About this map

Wieland North Oil Field and the Wieland West Oil Field define the northern reaches of this Hodgeman County landscape, reflecting the long-standing petroleum industry in western Kansas. The terrain is structured by a grid of local roads and the namesake Oil Field Rd, providing access to these energy resources across a high plains setting. The hydrology is dominated by the seasonal drainage patterns of Sand Creek and Dry Creek, which meander through the prairie. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Hanston-Oppy Oil Field further illustrates the intersection of natural resources and land use in this rural agricultural region at the dawn of the 21st century.
