About this map

The Salt Fork Arkansas River winds through this section of Comanche County, shaping a landscape defined by deeply incised drainages and canyons. This 2018 survey documents the intricate water network of the southern Kansas plains, where Nescatunga Cr and Mustang Cr converge near the river's path. The terrain is notably marked by Cristy Canyon and the headwaters of several smaller tributaries like Jug Motte Cr and Cave Cr.

A sparse network of rural roads, including Ave V and Rd 21, provides the primary access across the sectional grid. The map highlights the intersection of modern infrastructure with historical land divisions, tracing the boundaries of Townships 33, 34, and 35 South. This geography is characteristic of the High Plains, where seasonal creeks like Cottonwood Cr provide the only significant relief in an otherwise expansive ranching or agricultural environment.
