About this map

Langdon and Lerado anchor this rural section of Reno County, where the agricultural grid is defined by a network of long section-line roads. The landscape is bisected by State Hwy 61, which cuts diagonally across the northern portion of the map, passing through the town of Langdon. To the west of the town site, the F M Stout Memorial Airport provides a modern navigational landmark amidst the sprawling fields.

Tracing the natural drainage of the area, Silver Creek and Wolf Creek meander through the southern and central sections, breaking the rigid geometry of the road system. For those interested in local genealogy and regional history, both the Langdon Cemetery and Lerado Cemetery are clearly marked, providing established points of reference for tracing early families in this part of Kansas. The abundance of named rural routes, including Huntsville Rd, Pretty Prairie Rd, and Castleton Rd, highlights the connectivity between these small agrarian communities.
