2022 Map of Mattox Draw SW

About this map

Section lines and a precise grid of county roads define this portion of Kearny County, where the High Plains landscape is organized by the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals a strictly rural territory divided into townships such as t22s r38w and t23s r37w. The absence of dense settlements highlights a landscape dedicated to large-scale agriculture and ranching, with the terrain managed through a network of arterial routes including Co Rd 11 and Co Rd 16. This 2022 survey captures the contemporary geometry of Western Kansas, where the sparse placement of structures and the regularity of the road intervals reflect modern land use patterns and the enduring influence of original homestead surveying.
