2009 Map of Mill Creek

About this map

The confluence of the North Fork Solomon River and South Fork Solomon River creates a distinctive riparian landscape dominated by the expansive Waconda Lake in the northeast. This 2009 survey shows the managed hydrology of north-central Kansas, where major waterways and smaller tributaries like Oak Creek and Carr Creek feed into this significant reservoir system. The land is organized by a strict sectional grid, with rural thoroughfares such as Tipton Rd and N Rd providing access to the agricultural hinterlands and the shoreline near Lake Dr. This map illustrates the intersection of mid-continental water management and the enduring township-and-range road patterns that define the region's geography. Researchers will find the detailed path of Mill Creek as it meanders through the eastern sections, providing a clear record of the local drainage patterns as they existed in the early twenty-first century.
