2018 Map of Mouth of Wild Horse Creek

About this map

The Saline River cuts through the northern reaches of this landscape, forming a valley that defines the local geography on the border between Ellis and Trego counties. This 2018 survey illustrates a rural Kansas environment structured by a precise grid of section lines and range boundaries, including t11s r21w and t11s r20w. Several prominent drainages, such as Wild Horse Cr and Tomcat Cr, feed into the river system from the north and south, creating a dissected topography. The road network follows these section lines closely, with names like Homestead Rd and Sleepy Hollow Rd suggesting the late-modern residential and agricultural use of the land. Other routes like St John - St Andrew Rd and Severin Rd provide essential transit across the high plains, while the Trego Co Ellis Co line serves as a primary vertical axis for the map.
