Milford Lake dominates the central landscape of this 2015 survey, a massive reservoir created by the damming of the Republican River. The town of Milford sits along the lake's eastern shore, characterized by a grid of streets including Lakeview St and Whiting St. The area's history is preserved through numerous rural burial grounds like Milford Cem and Branscom Cem, while the Indian Grave Monument stands on a peninsula as a significant local landmark. This modern edition captures the complex interaction between water management and historical land divisions, where several creek systems like Madison Creek and School Cr feed into the reservoir's convoluted shoreline. The map also delineates the convergence of Geary, Riley, Clay, and Dickinson counties, showing how these political boundaries intersect with the flooded valley.
