1978 Map of Mc Donald SW

About this map

The High Plains of Cheyenne County are characterized here by a distinct township-and-range grid, where small cemeteries like Evergreen Cem and Grace Cem mark the heritage of early rural communities. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the Burlington Northern railroad corridor, a vital transport link for the region's agricultural economy. This section of Kansas, including portions of Evergreen, Bird City, and Burntwood townships, shows a landscape dotted with numerous water wells and seasonal drainage patterns such as North Beaver Cr. The map reveals how the border between Cheyenne and Rawlins counties was surveyed across this predominantly open prairie, reflecting the late 20th-century land use patterns before modern pivots altered the visual character of the plains.
