About this map

The High Plains of Rawlins County are defined here by the seasonal watercourses of the N Fork Sappa Cr and Middle Fork Sappa Cr. This 2018 survey documents a deeply rural landscape of northwestern Kansas, where the terrain is marked by the eponymous Long Draw and a systematic grid of section lines and gravel roads.

Large-scale agricultural land management is evident in the layout of the Public Land Survey System, including townships t4s r33w and t5s r32w. The local transportation network consists primarily of numbered routes like Co Rd 444 and lettered paths such as Rd Ms and Rd H. This map reflects the persistent rural character of the region, where the hydrology of the Sappa Creek forks dictates the use of the surrounding plains.
