About this map

Wichita Co Kearny Co marks the southern boundary of this section of the High Plains, where the terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Sand Cr. The landscape follows a strictly surveyed grid, evident in the network of section-line roads such as Co Rd 9 and Co Rd 5 that traverse the flat-to-undulating agricultural land.

This 2022 survey captures the region's enduring spatial organization, rooted in the Public Land Survey System. The transition between t19s r37w and t20s r37w shows how drainage patterns like those of Sand Creek subtly disrupt the geometric precision of the county's road network, which includes arterial routes like Co Rd X and Co Rd 1. It is a landscape of large-scale ranching or farming, where the distance between named features reflects the expansive nature of western Kansas settlement.
