2012 Map of Mattox Draw SW

About this map

Mattox Draw meanders through the northern section of this landscape in Kearny County, defining the primary drainage for an area otherwise characterized by a strict geometric grid. This 2012 survey illustrates the methodical organization of the High Plains, where agricultural land is partitioned by a network of local thoroughfares including Co Road D and Co Road J. These routes, along with numbered east-west corridors such as Co Rd-11 and Co Rd-19, facilitate the movement of goods and people across the rural expanse. The map records the intersection of modern cartographic precision and the enduring section-line system that has governed Kansas land use for over a century, providing a clear view of the road infrastructure and topographic relief near the Oklahoma-Kansas borderlands.
