2009 Map of Park

About this map

Park sits in the northwest corner of this high plains landscape, organized around a geometric grid of county roads and historic transportation corridors. The small community is anchored by Sacred Heart Cemetery and a local street network including 5th St, situated just north of the modern interstate and the legacy route of Old Hwy 40. The terrain is defined by the subtle drainage patterns of the region, where Cow Draw and Plum Creek trend northeast while Big Creek meanders across the southern half of the quadrangle. This 2009 survey illustrates the enduring agricultural character of Gove County, where a vast system of secondary roads like Gove 62 and Gove AA partition the land into broad sections, maintaining the rural connectivity established by generations of Kansas farmers.
