2018 Map of Pawnee Mound

About this map

Pawnee Mound rises as a prominent landmark in this western Kansas landscape, which straddles the border of Scott and Finney Counties. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by its vast agricultural grid and sparse hydraulic features, most notably the seasonal basin of Dry Lake in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The map captures the precise layout of the rural transportation network, where long arterial routes like E Finney Scott Rd and Jennie Barker Rd partition the plains into township and range sections. The terrain is marked by numerous depressions and intermittent water catches characteristic of the High Plains, providing a clear record of the area's drainage patterns and land use at the end of the second decade of the 2000s.
