2010 Map of North of Shirley Creek

About this map

Mattox Draw defines the drainage pattern of this high plains landscape in Kearny County, cutting a winding path through an otherwise orderly grid of section lines and gravel roads. This 2010 survey illustrates the vast agricultural geometry of western Kansas, where transportation is dictated by long, straight thoroughfares such as Rd 10 and Rd W. The intersection of drainage and infrastructure is visible where the draw crosses Rd 6 and RD Z, creating subtle topographical variations in an area primarily shaped by large-scale farming. Other local connectors like Co Rd B and Rd A provide the primary access to the scattered homesteads and industrial agricultural sites that characterize the region north of the Arkansas River valley.
