2010 Map of Meade NW

About this map

Crooked Creek meanders through the northern portion of this High Plains landscape, providing a rare natural break in the otherwise rigid geometry of the Kansas section lines. The map reveals the precise layout of a rural agricultural community organized around an extensive network of secondary roads, including J J Rd, K K Rd, and 13 Rd. These corridors facilitate the movement of local industry and connect isolated homesteads across the expanse of Gray County. The placement of farmstead structures along routes like C Rd and D Rd reflects a long-standing settlement pattern common to the region's ranching and wheat farming heritage. While the terrain is largely defined by the regularity of the survey grid, the drainage of the creek provides the primary topographical variation in this quiet corner of the state.
