About this map

The Mayflower Cem serves as a lone local landmark in this prairie landscape of northwestern Kansas, situated near the headwaters of the regional drainage systems. The terrain is defined by the carved paths of Burntwood Cr and its tributaries, including W Fork Burntwood Cr and E Fork Burntwood Cr, which cut through the high plains. A secondary drainage system is represented by the N Fork Driftwood Cr in the eastern half of the sheet. The survey details a rigid section-line road network typical of the Public Land Survey System, with designated routes such as Co Rd Y and Rd Z providing access across the township boundaries of t15s r36w and t15s r35w. This documentation of the rural Rawlins County landscape captures the intersection of natural watercourses and the human-imposed grid used for agricultural land management.
