2012 Map of Le Loup

About this map

The community of Le Loup and the nearby settlement of Norwood anchor this survey of eastern Kansas, where a dense grid of rural routes like Oregon Rd and Tennessee Rd facilitates local commerce. The landscape is defined by the winding tributaries of Tauy Cr, including the Middle Fork, East Fork, and West Fork. These waterways, along with Wolf Cr and Walnut Cr, carve through the agricultural terrain, punctuated by the elevation of Fowler Hill. A significant transportation corridor, Interstate 35, cuts diagonally across the southern half of the quadrangle, reflecting the region's role in modern connectivity. The presence of Coffman Airport north of Le Loup further highlights the integration of traditional farming lands with contemporary infrastructure. This document provides a clear view of the drainage patterns and road networks that have shaped the development of Franklin County.
