2010 Map of Kirwin SW

About this map

West Hope Cemetery sits as a lonely marker of community history in this rural Phillips County landscape, characterized by a well-defined grid of section roads and numerous drainages. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the hydrology surrounding Catfish Cove and Bow Creek, where the shoreline of the nearby reservoir meets the Kansas prairie. A network of rural routes, including S Kirwin Lake Rd and E Big Bear Rd, provides access to the small agricultural operations and homesteads scattered throughout the terrain. Significant local landmarks like the Baughman Farm Strip reflect the practical aviation and farming needs of this open country, while natural features like Hungry Hollow and Buros Creek define the underlying topography of the High Plains.
