2012 Map of Lake Scott SW

About this map

Ladder Cr. meanders through this agricultural landscape in Scott County, creating the primary topographic variation in an otherwise highly organized grid of section lines and rural thoroughfares. The drainage pattern of the creek is flanked by private access points such as Omega Ranch Dr and Big Valley Dr, suggesting the long-standing ranching and farming operations that define the High Plains. Transport and local logistics are anchored by the Buehler Airport in the southwestern portion of the map, serving as a hub for aerial application and regional travel. The landscape is meticulously partitioned by a series of numbered roads, including W Road 240 and W Road 170, which facilitate the movement of goods and machinery across this expansive stretch of western Kansas.
