2022 Map of Lakin NW

About this map

The Arkansas River defines the southern portion of this western Kansas landscape, carved by significant drainage systems including the winding path of Sand Cr. This 2022 survey of Kearny County illustrates the sparse, grid-based settlement pattern characteristic of the High Plains, where vast sections are delineated by the Public Land Survey System, such as t24s r38w and t25s r37w. The small settlement of Sutton sits near the river's north bank, serving as a localized point of interest in an area otherwise dominated by open terrain and a network of county roads. A system of maintained routes, including Co Rd 180 and Co Rd D, provides the primary infrastructure for the agricultural operations and rural residences that dot the region.
