About this map

Finney Co and Gray Co meet along a surveyed boundary in this modern representation of the western Kansas plains. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, where section lines are traced by long thoroughfares like N York Rd and N Ingalls Rd. This area exhibits the characteristic transition from the upland High Plains to the drainage systems that feed into the Arkansas River valley to the south.

Concentrated wetland pockets dot the southern half of the quadrangle, particularly south of E Rd V, indicating seasonal basins or playa lakes essential to the local ecosystem. Transport in the region is anchored by E Kansas Ave, which cuts an east-west path through the center of the sheet. The map provides clear evidence of agricultural land management, with roads such as N Community Rd and E Bell Rd serving as the primary infrastructure for the dispersed farmsteads of the region.
